How to Make Moraccan Oatmeal

  1. In a medium saucepan, dry toast the rolled oats and pine nuts over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them.
  2. Add the cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and salt. Stir to combine and toast for another minute.
  3. Stir in the water, chopped dried apricots, and brown sugar.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the oats are cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  5. If the mixture becomes too thick before the oats are cooked, add a little more water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy! Optional: Top with extra nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of honey.
