Blueberry compote
2 cups blueberries, divided
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Oatmeal
1 3/4 cups milk or water
1 cup Oatmeal
2 tablespoons salted butter
1-2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons heavy cream
2 medjool dates, pitted and chopped
1 3/4 cups milk
2 teaspoons almond butter

1
Make the compote: In a small saucepan combine 1 cup of berries, sugar, lemon, cinnamon and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer on moderate heat and cook for 3-5 minutes, until berries release their juices. Add the remaining cup of berries and mix gently. Turn off the heat and let sit while you make the oatmeal.
2
Prepare the oatmeal on top of the stove. Add the milk and chopped dates to the oats, and cook slowly until soft and creamy. If in the middle of cooking the oatmeal seems too stiff or starts drying out in the pot, drizzle more milk in, two or three tablespoons at a time, letting the oats absorb the milk in the same way you'd make a risotto, so that it has a creamy consistency. (This can take some time and if you are using steel cut oats, you should definitely soak them the night before if you don't want to be stirring forever.) Once your oats are cooked, stir in the almond butter. Portion the oatmeal into bowls, adding the butter, brown sugar and heavy cream to each serving. Lastly, spoon the blueberry compote on top of all that and dig in. (Save the rest for more oatmeal, ice cream, cake. . .)

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
