Cranberry-Ginger Oatmeal With Toasted Hazelnuts Recipe - Quick, Healthy & Ready in 45 Minutes

Ingredients:

• 1 cinnamon stick
• 1/2 cup fresh cranberries
• 1 inch piece of fresh, peeled ginger root
• 1/4 cup hazelnuts, crushed
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 1/4 cups water

Instructions:

1. Add water, cranberries, ginger, and spices to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the cranberries begin to burst, lower the heat to medium-low and add the oats, stirring occasionally until the desired consistency is reached, about 5-7 minutes. When oatmeal is cooked, remove the ginger and cinnamon stick and add salt.Meanwhile, heat a small skillet over medium-low heat and add hazelnuts. Toast in the pan until you can smell the hazelnuts, as this means they are releasing their oils. Turn off heat and add hazelnuts to the oatmeal.
