About this recipe

Cherry and dark chocolate oatmeal is a warm breakfast with a slightly dessert-like flavor. Cherries add a distinct tart contrast, dark chocolate adds depth, and cinnamon ties the fruit and chocolate flavors together. Oats cooked in milk form a creamy base that works well with the additions. Add the chocolate near the end or sprinkle it over the finished oatmeal so it melts slightly. Serve warm, when the cherry and chocolate flavors are most noticeable.

Ingredients

Servings: 2

  • 80 g rolled oats

  • 250 ml milk

  • 80 g cherries

  • a pinch of salt

  • 1 teaspoon butter

  • 10 g chopped dark chocolate

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon honey

Steps

  1. If using fresh cherries, pit them. Finely chop the chocolate.

  2. Heat the milk with the salt and butter until the butter melts, then add the rolled oats and stir.

  3. Cook over low heat for 4–5 minutes, until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened but will not become dry once the cherries are added.

  4. Add the cherries, cinnamon, and honey. Cook for another 1–2 minutes.

  5. Transfer the oatmeal to a bowl, sprinkle with the dark chocolate, and serve right away.
