Ingredients:
|
1 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon very finely chopped orange zest
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons dried tart cherries
2 cups skim milk
|
Directions:
|
- The night before you plan to serve this, in a glass bowl combine the oats, zest, cinnamon, and dried cherries. Mix well, then stir in the milk. Cover and place in the refrigerator.
- The next morning, place the oat mixture in a medium-sized saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Lower the heat and cook, stirring frequently, for 4-6 minutes, or until the oats are tender and the mixture is thick. Serve immediately, either as is, or with brown or granulated sugar, and cream, butter, or milk.
- NOTES : can use Craisins instead of dried cherries, and added 1 teaspoon of butter and 1 teaspoon of dark brown sugar when it finished cooking. It took almost 10 minutes to thicken.
- Gail's Notes - Gail didn't use orange zest, she did use old fashioned oats, and dried cherries. She made it again and used raisins/craisins, and said she thought the version with cherries was better.
- Stacy's Notes - made this Feb 2005, right after Gail sent it to me. I messed up and grabbed quick cook oats out of habit, and it was good, but next time, be sure to use old-fashioned oats. I didn't have an orange, so no zest. Used cinnamon and dried cherries (prob used 3-4T of cherries). Tim told me as he was eating it that he liked cinnamon in oatmeal! :) Flavored ours with Splenda and some Brummel & Brown. Next time try the brown sugar! Very good, a keeper
