Strawberries are finally in season and I am looking for ways to have them with everything. I love fresh strawberries, but roasting them and slathering on your oatmeal makes you feel like you are eating a decadent desert for breakfast. And we all know that you’ve gotta treat yourself, right? The recipe below is for bulk so I have breakfast to take to work during the week, but feel free to cut it down and adjust the amounts to your needs and liking.

INGREDIENTS:

(Yields 5 serving / 0.69 EUR per serving / 3.45 EUR for all)

For strawberries:

½ kilo fresh strawberries (2.00 EUR)

2 tbsp olive oil (0.09 EUR)

Good pinch of salt (0.01 EUR)

2 tbsp sugar (0.03 EUR)

For oatmeal:

2 cups instant oats (0.27 EUR)

¼ cup ground flax seed (0.40 EUR)

½ cup raisins (0.40 EUR)

2 tbsp honey (0.27 EUR)

1 tsp cinnamon (0.07 EUR)

1 tsp ground ginger (0.07 EUR)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract (0.03 EUR)

Pinch of salt (0.01 EUR)

3 cups water (–)

METHOD:

Preheat oven to 200°C. Wash, hull and halve strawberries, then toss with olive oil, salt and sugar and spread in a pan in a single layer. Roast for about 40 minutes, until strawberries are slightly caramelized and juices in the pan are slightly thickened.

While the strawberries are roasting, prepare the oatmeal. Mix up all of the ingredients in a pot and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, while stirring constantly. Serve the warm oatmeal topped with strawberries and their juices.
