This recipe combines the natural sweetness of jazz apples and berries with the rich flavor of maple syrup, all nestled in a creamy bowl of oats. It's the perfect way to start your morning on a wholesome note.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- If they're not already, core the apples and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Rinse the raspberries under cold water and set them aside to dry.
- In a large pot, add the 2 cups of oats, 3 cups of milk, and 2 cups of water.
- Stir well to combine and ensure the oats are well dispersed in the liquid.
- Place the pot over medium heat.
- Continually stir the mixture as it begins to heat. This helps to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom of the pot and ensures an even consistency.
- When the mixture starts to simmer, reduce the heat to low.
- Allow the porridge to cook gently for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The porridge should become thick and creamy.
- About halfway through the cooking time (around 5-8 minutes in), add the chopped apples to the pot.
- Stir the apples into the porridge, allowing them to cook until soft.
- Once the porridge has reached your desired consistency and the apples are tender, add the 1/3 cup of maple syrup.
- Stir well to incorporate the syrup throughout the porridge.
- Scoop the porridge into serving bowls.
- Top each bowl with a generous handful of fresh raspberries for a burst of color and fresh flavour.
- You may want to drizzle a little extra maple syrup on top of each serving, or sprinkle with some additional fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds for added texture and taste.
Tips:
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture. Quick oats or instant oats may become too mushy.
- Feel free to use any type of milk you prefer, whether it's dairy or non-dairy alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk.
- For a thicker porridge, reduce the water by half a cup.
- To prevent the apples from browning, you can toss them in a little lemon juice after cutting.
- Add a pinch of salt to the oats before cooking to enhance the overall flavors.
- If you prefer a sweeter porridge, you can add extra maple syrup to suit your taste.
- Top with additional fresh berries or nuts for added texture and flavor.
This Porridge with jazz apples, berries & maple-flavoured syrup is not only a comforting and delightful breakfast but also a quick and easy meal to prepare. Whether you're feeding the family or just treating yourself, this recipe is sure to become a morning favorite. Enjoy it warm and feel nourished and ready to take on the day!
