Vanilla Raspberry Oatmeal Brulee

Ingredients:

1/3 c. + 2 T. steel cut oats
1 1/2 c. milk
1 1/2 t. pure vanilla extract
2 t. sugar plus more for brulee top



In a large saucepan bring the milk to a boil. Add the oats and simmer 25-30 minutes to desired texture. When oats are near the end of cooking stir in the vanilla and 2 teaspoons of sugar. Remove from heat and empty oatmeal into a heat safe bowl. Add fresh raspberries to the oatmeal and push them down in slightly. Lightly shake a thin layer of sugar over the entire top of the oatmeal and torch lightly with a food torch until sugar melts, bubbles and hardens.

Serve immediately.
