Ingredients:

1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal
40g
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
0.55g
1 tbsp dried cranberries
8g
2 cherries
16g
2 tbsp pistachio nuts
16g
1 tbsp honey
20g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oatmeal:
- In a small pot, bring 1 cup of water (or milk for a creamier texture) to a boil.
- Add the 1/2 cup of multi-grain oatmeal to the boiling water, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency.
2. Add Flavor:
- While the oatmeal is simmering, stir in the 1/4 tsp of ground nutmeg for a warm, spiced flavor.
3. Mix in Dried Cranberries:
- After the oatmeal has finished cooking, stir in the 1 tbsp of dried cranberries. These will add a chewy texture and a hint of tartness.
4. Prepare the Cherries and Pistachios:
- Pit and dice the 2 cherries.
- Shell and chop 2 tbsp of pistachio nuts.
5. Combine and Serve:
- Transfer the cooked oatmeal to a serving bowl.
- Top with the diced cherries and chopped pistachios.
6. Finish with Honey:

7. Enjoy:

Tips:

- Use fresh cherries if they are in season; otherwise, frozen cherries can be a great substitute.

- Consider using unsweetened dried cranberries to reduce added sugars.

- Enhance the flavor by toasting the pistachios lightly before adding them to the oatmeal.

- For a creamier texture, cook the oatmeal in milk or a dairy-free alternative instead of water.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to your taste preference.
