Warm maple oatmeal with raisins

Warm maple oatmeal with raisins is a delightful and nutritious breakfast option. Combining the natural sweetness of raisins and maple syrup with the heartiness of multi-grain oatmeal, this simple recipe offers a perfect start to your day. With just a few ingredients and minimal preparation, you can enjoy a warm, satisfying meal that provides both energy and comfort.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal
40g
1/4 cup raisins
36g
1 tsp maple syrup
7g
1 cup water
240g

Instructions:

1. Gather Your Ingredients: Ensure you have all the ingredients measured and ready for use. This includes the multi-grain oatmeal, raisins, maple syrup, and water.
2. Boil Water: In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Add Oatmeal: Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and stir in the 1/2 cup of multi-grain oatmeal.
4. Cook the Oatmeal: Let the oatmeal cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan and to ensure even cooking.
5. Add Raisins: After the oatmeal has cooked for a few minutes and has started to thicken, stir in the 1/4 cup of raisins. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency and the raisins are plump.
6. Sweeten: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of maple syrup, ensuring it is well incorporated.
7. Serve Immediately: Transfer the warm oatmeal to a bowl and serve immediately.

Tips:

- For a creamier texture, you can substitute water with milk or a dairy-free alternative.

- Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors of the oatmeal and raisins.

- Consider soaking the raisins in warm water for 10 minutes before cooking to make them plumper and juicier.

- Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a handful of nuts for added flavor and texture.

- Prepare the oatmeal in a larger batch and store it in the fridge for a quick breakfast throughout the week.

This warm maple oatmeal with raisins recipe is both quick and easy to make, offering a delicious and nutritious start to any morning. With just the right balance of sweetness and heartiness, it's sure to become a favorite in your breakfast rotation.
