The breakfast version of the cookie. Ingredients:
1/2 cup old fashioned oats |
1 cup water |
1/4 cup pumpkin puree or 1/4 cup canned pumpkin |
1 teaspoon dark cocoa |
2 -2 1/2 teaspoons raw sugar (depends on how sweet you want it) |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1/2 clove |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Follow cooking directions on oatmeal can, and add ginger, cloves, cinnamon, cocoa and sugar immediately. After a minute or two, add pumpkin puree and stir. When oatmeal has reached desired consistency (I like mine thick and then I add cold milk later), remove from heat and add chocolate chips. If desired, add milk.
2. Note: spices, cocoa and sugar are not arbitrary measurements. This recipe is entirely up to the discretion of it's maker. These measurements add a nice, subtle flavor and the oatmeal is sweet but not too sweet, which is what I prefer.
