Time 12m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup oatmeal
1 cup pear juice
1 bartlett pear, peeled, seeded and grated
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons raisins (or golden raisins)
1/2 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt

Steps:

  • Note: I also tested this recipe using canned pears in their own juice and think canned pears would be a suitable substitute for fresh.
  • In a cast iron skillet on medium-high (depends on your range)heat dry roast the oatmeal and cinnamon for approximately 4-5 mintes. DO NOT burn. Remove pan from heat.
  • In a saucepan combine the pear nectar with 3/4 cup water. Cook slowly over medium heat just until bubbles appear around the edges. DO NOT boil.
  • Add the toasted oats, the grated pear, and salt. Cook mixture stirring constantly, until the oats are tender; about 10-12 minutes.
  • Stir in the raisins just before serving.
  • Top each serving with a dollop of yogurt.
