2 T. all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

In large sauce pan, stir together dry ingredients. Add water and vanilla and bring to a rolling boil, stirring often. Continue to boil, stirring often, until mixture begins to thicken (about 5-8 min). Remove from heat and let stand a few minutes before serving.

We REALLY enjoyed these last night for dinner, served with a sausage patty and scrambled eggs. YUM!
