Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Plant-based milk (e.g., almond, oat, soy)
- 0.5 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Tahini (sesame paste)
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup or date syrup
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cardamom
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped pistachios (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Pomegranate seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 pieces Dried or fresh figs (optional, sliced, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rolled oats, plant-based milk, and water. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Allow the oats to cook for 5-7 minutes or until they reach your desired consistency.
Stir in the tahini, maple syrup (or date syrup), ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until the flavors are fully combined and the oatmeal is creamy.
Remove the oatmeal from heat and divide it evenly between two serving bowls.
Garnish with chopped pistachios, pomegranate seeds, and sliced figs, if desired, for added flavor and texture.
Serve warm and enjoy your Middle Eastern-inspired tahini oatmeal!
