Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup golden raisins
- 0.5 cup pecans
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, water, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat while stirring occasionally.
Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are creamy and fully cooked.
Stir in the golden raisins and half of the pecans. Turn off the heat and let the oatmeal sit for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Divide the cooked oatmeal evenly among four oven-safe ramekins or shallow bowls.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar on top of each portion, ensuring a thin, even layer.
Using a small kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar until it melts and turns golden brown. (Alternatively, place the ramekins on a baking sheet and broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.)
Let the caramelized crust set for 1-2 minutes before garnishing with the remaining pecans.
Serve warm and enjoy the creamy oatmeal beneath the crispy, sweet brulee topping.
