do not get me wrong, oatmeal and i had some exquisitely delicious and comforting times. but i've been enjoying more variety (sprouted english muffins, toast, waffles) in my breakfasts lately & oats got knocked off their pedestal.
but this morning oats were divine, yummy and beautiful. i wish i had a picture.
the recipe shall suffice:
1/3 cup old fashion oats
1 small banana; some cooked in
a few raisins
1 apricot
1 tsp pure maple syrup
note: almost all images from weheartit.com
altogether now--
1/3 cup old fashion oats
1 small banana
raisins
1 apricot, sliced
1 tbsp almond butter
1 tsp pure maple syrup
i microwave my oats seeing as i don't have a pot to my name, and i am too impatient for them to cook stovetop anyway. so my method:
add water to oats (maybe 2/3 cup...) microwave 1 minute. add some banana. microwave 1 minute. add raisins. microwave 30 seconds (or till you get to a consistency you like). add apricot slices, remaining banana, maple syrup, and almond butter. gingerly stir, to let everyone awkwardly mingle.
enjoy.
how did you begin your day this morning?
