Black Plum Oats :: Chef Mark Cleveland @ Hungry Harvest ::

In a small sauce pan layer in the following

Amount	Measure	Ingredient	Prep Method
½	Cup	Steel cut oats
¼	Cup	Tart dried cherries
1	Tablespoon	Coconut oil
¼	Teaspoon	Cinnamon
1	Teaspoon	Flax seed	Optional
1	Teaspoon	Chia seed	Optional
1	Tablespoon	Quinoa	Optional
1	Tablespoon	Maple syrup	Optional
2	Tablespoons	Pepitas	Optional
1	Tablespoon	Hemp seed	Optional
1	Pinch	Sea salt	Optional
2	Medium	Black plums	Rough chop

Layer all into the pot in the above order.   

You want the dense ingredients to soak in the water.  Add

2 ½

Cups

Water

Cover the pot and let sit overnight in the fridge if you wish.  At breakfast time set the covered pot over medium heat.  Set a timer for 15 mins.  

Stir.  Taste and test for texture.  You’ll likely set the timer again for 10 more mins.  Once done, turn off timer and let rest for 10 mins.  Serve w/ yogurt if desired.  This serves 2.  But if you like it make double and triple batches.  It freezes great.  Also, remember your fresh herbs to break the fast.  Mint, Aztec sweet herb, stevia leaves, basil, lemon balm and more.

Blueberry Quinoa & Oat Maple Oven Cake

This hearty, wholesome, tasty & healthful ancient grain cake is easy to make fully organic and gluten free (look for gluten free oats).  It's also dairy free and includes the healthy fats from the oats, quinoa, pepitas and coconut oil.  Always choose organic berries.  They are so tasty & filled w/ natural anti oxidant nutrition. 

Amount	Measure	Ingredient	Prep Method
¼	Cup	Steel cut oats
¼	Cup	Rolled oats
¼	Cup	quinoa
¼	Cup	Coconut oil

Set the oven to 375.  Combine all in an 8” oven proof skillet.  I like the ceramic non stick.  Set the timer for 10 mins.  Stir once the coconut oil is melted.  Set the timer for 10 more mins.  When the grains are fragrant and golden brown, remove from oven.  Reduce the oven heat to 325.  Set the pan over medium flame and add:

1	Cup	Brewed black tea	Or water
2	Tablespoons	Port wine	Or fruit juice
1	Pinch	Salt	optional

Simmer until liquid is absorbed.  About 10 to 15 mins.  Reduce heat to low and add:

1	Tablespoon	Tangerine zest
1	Cup	Fresh tangerine juice
2	Tablespoons	Maple syrup

Simmer for about 5 mins until the liquid is absorbed and the grains nice and plump.  Stir to cool until cool enough to touch.

Meanwhile in a medium bowl whisk:

4

Large

Organic eggs

Fold in the maple grain mix, then gently fold in:

1	Cup	Organic blueberries
2	Tablespoons	Pepitas

Wipe out the skillet, spray it with organic oil spray, or wipe it w/ coconut oil.  Put the cake into the 325 oven and bake for 45 to 50 mins until the center is nicely set.  Rotate the pan halfway through.  Let cool for about 5 mins, shake the pan gently to loosen then slide out on to a plate to fully cool.

Serve w/ more organic blueberries, organic Bulgarian or Greek yogurt & mint or Aztec sweet herb garnish.  

Serve warm, cold or room temperature!
