Cinnamon Pear Dark Balsamic
Baked Oatmeal
1 Apple, 2 Cups Quick-Cooking Oats, 1/2 Cup Raisins, 1/2 Cup Chopped Walnuts (Divided), 1 Cup 2% Milk, 1 Tbsp Cinnamon Pear Balsamic (Plus more for drizzling), 2 Tbsp Brown Sugar, Greek Yogurt (to serve)
Peel and core the apple and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Place the pieces in a 9-inch pie plate or cast-iron pan with the oats, raisins, and 1/4 cup of the walnuts, stirring, to combine. Pour the milk and balsamic into the pie plate, add 2 cups water, and gently stir to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight. In the morning, remove the plastic wrap and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the oatmeal for 20-25 minutes, until all the remaining liquid has been absorbed, the oats are soft, and the top is golden. Cut into slices and serve hot with the remaining walnuts, a sprinkle of sugar, a drizzle of balsamic, and a dollop of Greek Yogurt.
Caramelized Pear on Warm Brie
2 Green Onions, 2 Tbsp mild & fruity evoo, 1 Pear, 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar (Packed), 1/4 Cup Apple Juice (or Apple Cider), 2 Tbsp Cinnamon Pear Balsamic, 1 (4 oz) Round of Brie, & 1/4 Cup Chopped Walnuts
Wash and trim the green onions. Finely chop them, separate the greens from the whites, and set aside. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, sauté the whites of the green onions in the olive oil until just soft, about 1 minute. Peel, core, and roughly chop the pear into 1/2-inch pieces. Add the pear, sugar, apple juice, and vinegar. Slowly bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, then turn down the heat to medium. Simmer on medium heat, allowing the pear to caramelize and thicken, 10-12 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the Brie in an ovenproof serving dish or Brie baker. Pour the pear and caramel over top and sprinkle with the walnuts. Bake for 10 minutes, just to soften the Brie. Sprinkle with the green parts of the green onions. Serve warm with a fresh baguette, crostini, or crackers.
