Wonderful taste combination.  So probably better for you with milk than with cream, but a tablespoon or two of cream won’t do permanent harm.  Try it!

Crock-Pot Scottish Oatmeal

I first had this in a castle in Scotland – they called it porridge. They offered a full Monty breakfast, but after having this, I was interested only in more of it. It took a while to find a way to get the same texture, but the crock-pot did it. It is ready to go when you get up.

Raspberry Almond Muesli

Muesli is a dish found on European breakfast buffets, particularly in Austria, Germany and the Scandinavian countries.  It is typically served at room temperature.  When made with cream, it is luscious, but insanely high fat and calories.  This version is equally delicious, but very, very good for you as well.  It will stick with you all morning.
