Not only is it free of gluten or refined sugar, this Raspberry Chocolate Pie also happens to be made with a whole bunch of natural, good for you ingredients! The perfect refreshing guilt-free desert of the summer!

I used to dismiss any sweet dish, or anything that was sweet enough to qualify as dessert, to be invariably unhealthy. In my mind, I could not conceive that it was possible for a dessert to be healthy and even good for you.

And IF a dessert was actually healthy enough to qualify as being healthy, then for sure, it had to taste like cardboard. To me, there was no way on earth that a healthy dessert could actually taste good. It was plain impossible.

That was until I gave them a try and started making my own. Wow have I ever changed my mind, and thank goodness I have. Oh the good stuff that I would be missing out on.

Like this delicious Raspberry Chocolate Pie, for instance.

I am telling you, this pie is simply insanely, deliciously good. view post about Gluten Free Raspberry Chocolate Pie

4 cups water 1 cup steel-cut oats 175g 1/4 teaspoon salt Pour the water and salt into a medium saucepan and bring it to a boil over high heat. Be sure to use a large enough saucepan as the water will foam up once you add the oats to it and it could spill out of the pan. Once the water starts to boil, pour the oats into the water and stir; let the water come back up to a rolling boil then reduce the heat to low and bring the oats to a slow simmer. Cover loosely and simmer for about 25 minutes, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan from time to time to prevent the oatmeal from attaching, until the oats are very tender and the liquid has practically completely evaporated. At that point, kill the heat and let the oatmeal sit covered for about 10 minutes, or until it has reached the desired consistency — the longer it sits, the thicker the oatmeal will get. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped nuts, dried or fresh fruits, shredded coconut, a drizzle of honey and a splash of your choice of milk if desired. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week and can then be enjoyed cold or reheated. To reheat, stir in a little bit of milk or water into the oats to loosen the cereal and pop them in the microwave or reheat on the stovetop over low heat. Steel-Cut Oatmeal is nutty, crunchy, chewy and creamy all at once! It's the perfect picker-upper to comfort you on a cold, brisk winter morning, or on any dark, chilly and rainy day! Try it on its own, or garnished with your favorite toppings!
