Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 4 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 cups Mixed fresh fruits (e.g., berries, diced apple, banana)
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 4 tablespoons White granulated sugar
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, milk, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the oats are cooked and creamy. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
While the oatmeal cooks, prepare the ginger maple cream. In a small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, maple syrup, and ground ginger. Set aside.
Divide the cooked oatmeal evenly among four oven-safe ramekins or bowls. Top each portion with approximately 1/2 cup of fresh mixed fruits.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar evenly over the top of the oatmeal and fruit in each ramekin.
Preheat the broiler in your oven or use a kitchen torch. If using the broiler, place the ramekins on a baking sheet and position them under the broiler. Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the sugar melts and forms a caramelized crust. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let the brulee topping cool slightly for 1-2 minutes, allowing it to harden.
Drizzle the prepared ginger maple cream over the oatmeal brulee just before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy oats, crunchy caramelized sugar, and fresh fruit.
