Another entry in my collection of oatmeal combinations. This one is a little bit odd but the results are surprsingly good. I have presented it here to match my own desired consistency, but you should adjust to your own tastes. Ingredients:
1 cup regular oatmeal (not instant) |
2 cups water, use less if you like a very thick porridge |
1 banana, sliced 1/4 inch thick |
1/2 cup pineapple chunks in juice or 1/2 cup pineapple chunks in juice |
1/2 cup mandarin oranges in juice |
2 drops lemon extract |
1/8 teaspoon coconut extract |
1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place water in a medium saucepan and bring to and bring to a boil.
2. Add oats and reduce to a simmer.
3. Add the extracts. (A caution here; one drop if lemon adds a certain clean quality that works well with the fruit. More than that and the results are likey to be off. If you are concerned about your accuracy, I would omit rather than add too much.).
4. Cook as directed on you pacakage somewhere between 3 to 5 minutes.
5. One minute before the oatmeal is done, stir in the banana slices, pineapple and oranges.
6. Divide into two bowls, garnish with coconut if using.
7. Two tablespoons of shredded coconut is 1 point.
