Hi fellow oatmeal lovers!
My name is Kasia (@cathyhope9 on Instagram), and I’m honored to be sharing my second recipe on The Oatmeal Artist’s blog (first one was Cherry Chili Brownie Baked Oatmeal).
I love Lauren’s weekly themes. They save me from daily dilemma: what oatmeal am I going to have for breakfast?! When one of themes was cinnamon I knew I had to make:
- apple pie oatmeal,
- cinnamon roll oatmeal.
I’ve had apple pie thousands times before but… the problem was cinnamon roll. They are not popular in Poland where I am from, and I have never tried one. I couldn’t copy the flavor I didn’t know. So I searched for the recipe for the stove-top Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal, and TheVegan8 recipe was what I was looking for!
However, I wanted to make my own icing. I decided to use tahini, mostly because its color. I also tried it with cinnamon apple-zucchini oatmeal (pictured above) and it worked great!
What you'll need:
- 1 rounded tsp tahini
- 3/4 tsp cinnamon
- about 1/2 tsp maple syrup*
- pinch of ground ginger
- about 1 1/2 tsp water**
How to make it:
- Simply mix tahini with spices and maple syrup. Add water slowly and carefully until your reach preferred consistency.
Just an FYI:
*add more if you have a sweet tooth! **depends how thick your tahini is
