📖 Recipe
Healthy Cherry Peach Oatmeal
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 2 cups frozen cherries and peaches
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- pinch sea salt
- 2 cups rolled oats old-fashioned
- 1 cup thawed frozen cherries for topping
- 1 banana sliced (for topping)
Instructions
- Add frozen fruit, water and salt to a medium pan and bring a boil.
- Add oats, vanilla extract and almond extract and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, stirring regularly to prevent the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pan or boiling over.
- Cook until thick, about 10 minutes, then turn off heat. Serve with thawed frozen cherries (and the juice, the juice is the best part!), sliced banana and sweetener of your choice.
