What to cook with yesterday's oatmeal: a dish like a dessert

Not everyone can eat a whole bowl of boiled oatmeal at once. That's why if there's leftover porridge the next day, it automatically goes in the trash. But it's much better to make a full meal out of the leftovers.

The idea of making a cupcake from yesterday's boiled oatmeal was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Oksana Vasurchak (ok.vasurchak). It turns out to be a full-fledged dessert.

Ingredients:

• leftover oatmeal - 120 g

• 1 egg
• a spoonful of ricotta (optional)
• a handful of almond flakes (optional)
• 2 teaspoons of all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp. baking powder

Method of preparation:

1. Combine oatmeal, egg, cottage cheese and nuts in a blender, if desired.

2. Blend everything.

3. Add the flour and mix.

4. Add baking powder, mix.

5. You can send it to a preheated slow cooker (on parchment or in a baking dish) - "bake" mode for 40 minutes. Or in the oven on parchment or in a baking dish at 140-160 degrees for 40-60 minutes.

6. You can also cook the dish in a frying pan - make it like a big pancake or put it in small pancakes. Fry over low heat under a lid, then turn over.
