Toppings make things special. Just throwing chocolate chips on my oatmeal gets me all excited, so imagine how I felt drizzling on spoonfuls of BRIGHT RED DELICIOUSNESS.
I put mine over Spiced Banana Baked Oatmeal (spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg), an easy variation on Banana Baked Oatmeal. The combination was fabulous. However, it would also work beautifully on stove-top oatmeal like Banana, Nutty Nana Berry, Chocolate Strawberry, Overnight Coconut, etc.
P.S. Let me know if you’d like to see more sauces/toppings. I have ideas, but I won’t bother posting them if nobody cares. 🙂
Berry-Ginger Sauce
What you'll need:
- 1/2 cup finely diced berries
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- scant 1/8 tsp ground ginger
- pinch of salt
How to make it:
- Add all ingredients to a small saucepan and cook over medium low. Stir consistently and keep an eye on it. If it's burning or getting stuck to the pan, turn down the heat. It should be simmering, NOT boiling.
- Allow it to cook and reduce for approximately ten minutes.
- Remove from eat and allow to sit for a couple minutes. It should thicken up a little more.
