Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup whole milk or low fat or plant based milk
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • ⅔ cup oats gluten free if desired
  • ½ pear diced
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • Peanut butter for drizzling on top optional
  • Hazelnuts for topping optional

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Add the milk to a medium pot and bring to a simmer. Add in the oats and a teaspoon of salt and cinnamon. Cook, stirring occasionally for the porridge not to stick to the bottom of the pot. Stir until the oats are creamy and have absorbed the liquid, about 5-8 minutes. Add a little more liquid (water or milk) if needed.
  2. Add in fresh chopped pear, maple syrup (or leave it for drizzle on top), and coconut milk.
  3. Remove from the heat and cover for 2 minutes to let the pear soften and warm through.
  4. Transfer to your favorite serving bowls and decorate with hazelnuts, pear slices, and sprinkle with cinnamon, or with any of your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use a ripe pear. It adds natural sweetness and softens perfectly into the oatmeal.
  • Cook on low heat and stir often. This keeps the oats creamy and prevents sticking or burning.
  • Add a splash of milk when reheating. This brings back the smooth, creamy texture.
