  • 100 grams rolled oats
  • 250 milliliter almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp date syrup

MARZIPAN SAUCE

  • 1 egg yolk
  • 100 milliliter full-fat cow milk
  • 50 milliliter heavy cream
  • 50 grams marzipan
  • 40 grams white sugar
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract

CHERRY FILLING

  • 150 grams cherries
  • 50 milliliter cherry juice
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

TOPPING

  • candied cherries

Instructions

  1. Place the marzipan in the freezer for about 20–30 minutes, then grate it coarsely using a cheese grater.
  2. Warm the milk and cream in a pot without bringing it to a boil, then remove from heat.
  3. Mix the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract thoroughly in a bowl. Add the grated marzipan and stir well.
  4. Gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the warm milk-cream mixture, one teaspoon at a time, stirring constantly until combined. Return the pot to medium heat and stir until the sauce thickens. For a firmer consistency, mix 1 tsp of cornstarch with a bit of water, add it to the sauce, and briefly bring it to a boil. Remove from heat.
  5. In another pot, mix cherries, cherry juice, lemon juice, powdered sugar, and cornstarch. Heat over medium heat until the mixture thickens and the cherries soften. Remove from heat.
  6. In a separate pot, combine oats, almond milk, vanilla extract, salt, and your choice of sweetener (e.g., date syrup). Bring to a boil, stirring until the oats are soft.
  7. Layering: Spread a portion of the oatmeal in a small bowl, then add a layer of cherry sauce. Cover with the remaining oatmeal, smooth the surface, and pour the marzipan sauce over the top.
  8. Garnish with a candied cherry. Serve immediately or prepare as overnight oats.
