Recipe: Oatmeal with honey-roasted peanuts and candied ginger

[fish_echo]

*waves* Hi, this is my first post here!

I made this as a snack today somewhat impulsively and it came out quite good (to my surprise), so I thought I'd share.


I'm sorry for the low-precision measurements but I wasn't expecting to need/want more precision when I made this. And my kitchen scale is broken so I couldn't weigh things out at the moment anyway.

Ingredients (one serving)
--1.5 C water
--3/4 C rolled oats
--small handful honey roasted peanuts (25?)
--3 pieces candied ginger, finely diced (maybe a scant tablespoon?)
--pinch cinnamon
--dash nutmeg
--milk/cream/butter to taste

Method

1. Put water, peanuts, and diced ginger in a small saucepan on the range on high heat.


2. When the water comes to a vigourous boil, add oats and turn down the heat a bit (so that it's still boiling but so you aren't in danger of boiling over). Stir occasionally.


3. When the oats have reached the consistency you like, take off the heat and put into your bowl.


4. Mix in spices and dairy.


5. Enjoy!
