For an even richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for some of the milk. A pinch of nutmeg or a dash of vanilla extract can add a warm, aromatic note to the polenta. If you don't have blackberry jam, try using other fruit preserves, honey, or maple syrup. Leftover polenta can be cooled, sliced, and pan-fried for a crispy treat the next day. For a dairy-free version, use almond milk or coconut milk and a plant-based sour cream alternative.
