In Milford, Indiana, Kathy Rairigh warms up many a crisp fall morning by spooning a sweet chunky fruit sauce over oatmeal. Replace half of the peaches with applesauce, she suggests. Ingredients:
2 cups diced peeled fresh or frozen peach slices |
4 teaspoons maple syrup |
3 tablespoons plus 3-1/2 cups water, divided |
2 teaspoons orange juice concentrate |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
dash ground ginger |
2 cups quick-cooking oats |
2 tablespoons raisins |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
milk and slivered almonds, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine peaches, syrup, 3 tablespoons water, orange juice concentrate, cinnamon and ginger. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered, for 5 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, in another saucepan, bring the remaining water to a boil. Stir in the oats, raisins, brown sugar and salt. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes. Serve oatmeal with peach sauce, and milk and almonds if desired. Yield: 4 servings. |
