Indian Spiced Oats W/ Coconut Milk

Ingredients

• 1 cup steel cut oats
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp ground cloves
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds
• 1 cup light coconut milk

Directions

1. Set a medium pot over the stove with 4 cups of water and 1/2 tsp salt, and bring it to a full boil. Stir in 1 cup steel-cut oats, then lower the heat to medium/low so the pot bubbles gently. Cook for about 30 minutes, stopping when the oats have thickened to the consistency you like.
2. While the oats are cooking, stir in the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, vanilla extract, and brown sugar so the spices have time to bloom into the porridge.
3. When the oats are done, portion them into four servings. Finish each bowl with 2 Tbsp raisins, 1 Tbsp sliced almonds, and 1/4 cup coconut milk, then serve.
