Fruit And Spice Cut Oatmeal

Photo: Mitch Mandel
Oats are an excellent source of fiber and one of the easiest foods to prepare. Cook them in milk instead of water, if you prefer a creamier texture. Here we suggest adding the oats to boiled water, which gives them a firm, slightly coarse texture.

Ingredients

Serves: Prep:  10min |Cook: 30min |Total: 40min
              

Directions

1.
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the oats and salt and bring to a bare simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2.
Stir in the apple, dates or figs, honey, pie spice, and ginger. Return to a bare simmer and cook, covered, for 15 minutes longer, or until the oats are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Spoon into bowls and stir in the milk or drizzle it over the top, if using.

This recipe was awesome. I made a serving for one. I did not have any honey or pumpkin spice but I did have agave and Baking spice (Penzeys's spices) and I used 2tb of dates. The apples and dates were so soft that the texture of the oatmeal was a little cream once i stirred it up. I did not need to use any milk.
