Ingredients
2 Lil Snapper Kid Size Pears
1 cup water
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup 2% milk
Granulated sugar or agave, to sweeten, as desired
Golden raisins or dried cranberries, to top, if desired
Instructions:
for our Pear & Oatmeal Boats RecipeWorking with one pear at a time, place pear on cutting board, (properly, with stem up). Cut away approximately 1/3 of pear’s side, just to the side of stem, parallel to core, to create “boat” base. Using a teaspoon or grapefruit spoon, gently core out center of pear. Repeat with second pear. Set pears aside.
In a small pot, heat water and salt to boil. Add oats to water, reduce heat to low and sim¬mer, stirring occasionally, for approximately 5 minutes, until water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Add milk and cinnamon to oatmeal and mix well. Add a pinch of sugar or agave to sweeten, if desired. Fill pear boat with generous spoonful of oatmeal. Dust with additional cinnamon and a sprinkle of golden raisins or dried cranberries, if desired. Serve immediately.
