Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 cups milk (or plant-based milk)
  • 2 ripe pears, diced
  • 1/4 cup sliced or slivered almonds
  • 1 tsp chai spice blend (cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves)
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Toast the almonds: Preheat a skillet over medium heat and toast the sliced almonds for about 3-5 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Cook the oats: In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats and milk. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until creamy.
  3. Prepare the pears: Dice fresh pears into bite-sized pieces, tossing them in lemon juice to prevent browning.
  4. Add spices and sweetness: Stir in the chai spice blend and maple syrup into the cooked oats until well combined.
  5. Fold in pears: Gently mix diced pears into the oatmeal and cook for another minute until warmed through.
  6. Serve: Spoon oatmeal into bowls, top with toasted almonds, and drizzle with more maple syrup if desired.
