Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups water
  • 2/3 cup Quaker Quick 3-Minute Steel Cut Oats
  • Pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup lite coconut milk
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 4 teaspoons coconut sugar or turbinado sugar
  • Toasted coconut for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Frying Pan
  • Large Pot
  • Saucepan
  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. 1. In a medium saucepan, bring water and salt to a boil. Stir in the oats and reduce to medium heat. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until oats are of desired texture, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut milk. Gently fold in the ½ cup of the raspberries.
  2. 2. Divide oats into 4 oven safe ramekins or bowls. Press additional raspberries on top. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar over each ramekin, making sure the oats and raspberries are well coated. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and put under a hot broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the sugar melts and forms a crust. Remove from the oven and garnish with toasted coconut, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of coconut milk if needed.
  • Freezing: This dish doesn't freeze well due to the texture of the oats. It's best enjoyed fresh.
  • Pairing: This oatmeal goes wonderfully with a side of crispy bacon or fresh fruit salad for a complete meal.
  • Sweetness Adjustment: Depending on your preference, you can adjust the amount of coconut sugar used for caramelization.
  • Garnishing: Consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for added warmth in flavor.
  • Batch Cooking: Make a larger batch on the weekends and reheat throughout the week for a quick breakfast.
  • Experimentation: Try using almond milk or oat milk for a different flavor profile!
