Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 0.5 cup orange segments (peeled and sliced)
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional, e.g., almonds or pecans)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, orange juice, water, grated ginger, orange zest, cinnamon, and salt.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let the oatmeal cook until thickened, about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the porridge has reached your desired consistency, remove it from heat and stir in the honey (or maple syrup).
Divide the oatmeal into serving bowls, and drizzle with milk (or non-dairy alternative) for creaminess.
Top each bowl with fresh orange segments, chopped nuts, and a sprinkle of chia seeds if desired.
Serve the Orange Ginger Oatmeal Porridge Delight warm and enjoy the refreshing citrusy flavor alongside the warm, spiced undertones.
