SPICED IRISH OATMEAL WITH CREAM AND CRUNCHY SUGAR

A shower of heavy cream and plenty of caramelized Demerara sugar may make these Irish oats seem more like dessert than something you'd serve first thing in the morning, but that's all the more reason to bake them up for a special occasion breakfast or brunch. Cardamom and cinnamon give them an especially earthy, perfumed aroma, and toasting the oats in butter before baking them lends nuttiness and depth. They're also extremely easy, and you can assemble the dish the night before, then bake them in the morning. Just add about 10 minutes to the baking time if you're starting them cold from the fridge.

Tips:

  • Use good quality oats. Steel-cut oats are the best choice for this recipe, as they have a chewy texture and nutty flavor. If you don't have steel-cut oats, you can use rolled oats, but they will cook more quickly and have a softer texture.
  • Don't skip the spices. The spices in this recipe are what give it its unique flavor. Be sure to use a good quality cinnamon and nutmeg, and don't be afraid to add a little extra if you like. You can adjust the measurements for the spices according to your preference.
  • Use full-fat cream. Full-fat cream will give the oatmeal a richer, creamier flavor. If you don't have full-fat cream, you can use 2% or skim milk, but the oatmeal will be thinner and less flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the oatmeal. Oatmeal is best when it is cooked until it is tender but still has a little bite to it. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and bland.
  • Serve the oatmeal with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings for oatmeal include brown sugar, maple syrup, honey, nuts, and dried fruits. You can also add a dollop of yogurt or whipped cream for a richer flavor.

Conclusion:

Spiced Irish oatmeal is a delicious and hearty breakfast that is perfect for a cold morning. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet or savory, creamy or crunchy, this oatmeal is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting breakfast, give this recipe a try.
