Ingredients
- Butter
- 1/4 cup, cold and cubed
- Brown sugar
- 1/4 cup
- All-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Dried apricots
- 1/2 cup, chopped
- Milk
- 2 cups
- Rolled oats
- 1 cup
Instructions
- Combine the rolled oats, milk, chopped dried apricots, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a medium-sized saucepan.
- Cook the oatmeal mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened, which should take about 10-15 minutes.
- While the oatmeal is simmering, prepare the crumble. In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and brown sugar.
- Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingers until the mixture attains a coarse crumb texture.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the cooked oatmeal.
- Place the saucepan under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the crumble topping turns golden and crispy. Keep a close watch to prevent the crumble from burning.
- Serve the Apricot Crumble Oatmeal warm. You can add a drizzle of honey or a splash of extra milk for added richness. Enjoy this comforting breakfast!
Tips
- For a vegan version, replace the butter with coconut oil and use a plant-based milk. You can substitute apricots with other dried fruits like cranberries, raisins or figs for a different flavor profile.
