I mentioned this breakfast two weeks ago in a weekend update. John and I were craving something warm and homey, and something that reminded us of cool weather because we were/are getting so tired of the boiling temperatures we've been having here in Florida. This homemade oatmeal really hit the spot and kept us full for hours. My blog friend Sienna recommended I post the actual recipe for it, and I promised I would. Sienna, I hope you enjoy this oatmeal on a cool day in London!
Warm Cranberry-Walnut Oatmeal
Serves 2
2 cups raw oats
1 cup water
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
a dash of salt
Maple syrup to your desired taste
Directions:
Boil water and add oats, bring to low simmer and stir until thickened (about 8-12 minutes). Stir in toppings and serve warm! Easy peasy!
Question of the Day:
Do you have a go-to, from scratch, breakfast recipe?
