There’s nothing like a hot breakfast after crawling out of your warm sleeping bag on a crisp morning at the crack of dawn. While we abandoned our rainy campsite with dampened spirits and dampened everything else, I wanted to continue on with the camp menu, seeing as I had everything ready in any case.
This creamy version of our traditional porridge is adapted from The Camping Cookbook and adds a nice bit of luxury to a morning spent in the woods. Even a super rainy one.
Dump 1 1/4 cup milk into a saucepan and bring it to a low boil.
Add in 1/2 teaspoon salt and 2/3 cup oats and cook, stirring, until the mixture starts to thicken.
Sprinkle in 1/2 teaspoon allspice and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and reduce the heat a little bit.
Grate up 1 large apple. I’ve never grated an apple before. It’s oddly satisfying.
Tip that into the mix and stir until it’s heated through.
Serve with honey drizzled over top. Perfect.
That looks delicious! The Spider doesn’t though
