Porridge with dried fruits

Nutritious oatmeal with dried apricots and raisins. Porridge with dried fruits is not the worst option for a morning meal. Dried fruits will significantly enrich the dish and decorate it visually. Prunes should be used with caution; their bright taste may not be to everyone's taste. But dried cherries, cranberries, and berries will not be superfluous. You can also use vanilla.

I often cook oatmeal with dried fruits. I can confirm - delicious! For a change, I’ll suggest making lazy oatmeal with frozen cherries.

My daughter got tired of regular oatmeal and asked for something unusual) She offered to cook porridge according to this recipe. My daughter liked it) Adding dried apricots and raisins made the porridge even sweeter. Surprisingly, the daughter did not take the raisins out of the porridge, she even ate them, although she does not like dried fruits. Regarding the proportion, I would like to add, I have instant porridge and 400 ml. there was little milk. The oatmeal immediately absorbed the milk. So I added another 200 ml. hot water. After that, boil it for five minutes over low heat. The porridge turned out thick and viscous. I added butter; I had store-bought milk, not full-fat. Oatmeal is hearty and perfect for a full breakfast. The dried apricots and raisins became softer after a short cooking. And everything together turned into a tasty porridge. I liked the recipe, thank you!
