Oatmeal with dried fruits

Oatmeal with dried fruits is not just breakfast but a true embodiment of comfort and warmth. The tradition of adding dried fruits to porridge is believed to have come from European cuisine, where the balance of health and taste is valued. The thick, velvety texture of oatmeal pairs wonderfully with the natural sweetness of apricots and raisins, giving the dish a delicate fruity aftertaste. Butter makes the porridge even richer and more aromatic. Due to its nutritious composition, this dish is perfect for both an invigorating morning and a light dinner. It has no excessive sweetness since dried fruits are already rich in natural sugars. Oatmeal with dried fruits is a harmony of taste and health that can be enjoyed at any time of day.
