Equipment

Blender
Medium Saucepan
Whisk
Wooden Spoon

Ingredients

1 cup Raw Peanuts unsalted, redskin
1 cup Quick Oats
2 cups Milk divided
3 cups Water
2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg or freshly grated
1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
pinch Salt
Sweetened Condensed Milk or sugar, sweeten to taste

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, add water and bring to a boil over medium heat. In a blender (or blender cup), combine the peanuts, oats, milk, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. Purée until you've reached your desired texture (silky smooth or with some texture).
Pour mixture into boiling water and whisk constantly to prevent lumping. Continue to whisk until mixture has thickened. After approx. 5 to 7 minutes, or when porridge has thickened and has slow large bubbles, add an additional 1/4 to 1/2 cup of milk or water to thin porridge to your desired consistency.
Stir with a spoon and let simmer on low heat for another 5 to 10 minutes then sweeten with condensed milk or sugar to taste. Serve hot, and enjoy!
