Mixed Berry Oatmeal
Ingredients
4 cups milk
4 cups steel cut oats
1 cup raspberries
1 cup blueberries
1 cup strawberries, quartered
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup agave nectar
2 tbsp water
Preparation
1
For the compote, combine the berries, agave, cinnamon, vanilla and water in a large sauce pan, turn the heat to medium low and slowly bring the mixture to a boil, allow it to reduce by a third, and then turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool.
2
While the compote cools, in another pot, bring the milk to a low simmer, this will take several minutes so be patient. Then add the compote, while stirring, until fully incorporated into the milk, stir in the oats and allow the oatmeal to cook, stirring often, for 15 to 20 minutes.

This recipe easily yields five plentiful servings.
