Decadent Oatmeal

Category: BreakfastCollection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • Two medium sized apples. I prefer Granny Smith or Pippins.
  • 1-1/2 ounce dried apricot.
  • 1-1/2 ounce dried raisin.
  • 1 pint apple juice.
  • 3 ounces slow-cooking oatmeal.
  • spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, Lemon Rind, [Allspice]

Directions

I tried this one day when I had a bit of apple juice on hand. The
only fat is from the oatmeal proper. If memory serves, there's 1 gm
of fat per ounce of dry oatmeal. Feel free to substitute.

Core the apples, [peel if you insist] and chop. Chop the dried
apricot. Combine the apples, apricot, raisins with the apple juice
and heat to boiling. Let simmer a minute, then add the oatmeal. Cook
for 5 minutes, then turn off the heat and cover for a couple of
minutes. Serve over or with sliced banana.
