Ingredients
Directions
In a medium-large saucepan over medium-high heat, combine all the ingredients except the raspberries and sweetener.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low and let simmer covered for 10–15 minutes or a little longer if needed, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is absorbed.
Stir in the frozen raspberries, until they have dissolved a little.
Taste, and if desired, add the liquid sweetener.
Serve, topped with an extra drizzle of milk and maple syrup if desired.
Chef's Notes
Raspberries
This recipe specifies frozen organic raspberries for convenience and cost. Organic raspberries are typically expensive and not as widely available. Organic frozen raspberries are more affordable and can be found in most areas year-round. Feel free to use fresh organic raspberries, or substitute other berries like organic chopped strawberries, organic blackberries, or organic blueberries.
Whole Food Sweetener
Use date paste in place of maple syrup.
Nutritional Perk
Want to enhance the nutritional value of this oatmeal even more? Try stirring in a tablespoon or two of flax meal or hemp seeds when serving. You can also stir in a little nut butter, like almond or cashew butter, while the oatmeal is still warm.
Serving Suggestions
Top oatmeal servings with extra fresh fruit if desired, working with seasonal fruits. Add crunchy texture with toppings of seeds, chopped nuts, or unsweetened shredded coconut.
Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
