Ingredients
3 heaped tbsp organic rolled oatmeal
110g dessert apples, preferably Worcester Pearmain or Cox’s Orange Pippin
Approx. 1 tsp honey, depending on the tartness of the fruit
Single cream and soft brown sugar, to serve
Method
Measure out 6 tablespoons of water into a bowl and sprinkle the oatmeal on top.
Let the oatmeal soak up the water while you grate the apple.
A stainless-steel grater is best for this job; use the largest side and grate the apple coarsely, skin and all.
I grate through the core, but watch your fingers when you are coming close to the end.
Pick out the dark pips and discard.
Stir the honey into the oatmeal and then stir in the grated apple, taste and add a little more honey if necessary. This will depend on how much you heaped up the spoon earlier on and how sweet the fruit is.
Serve with cream and soft brown sugar.
