Ingredients
- One generous portion of a ripe grapefruit, halved
- A quarter cup of traditional, hearty oats
- A spoonful of rich brown sugar
- A sprinkle of fragrant ground cinnamon
- Just a hint of salt
- Two teaspoons of creamy butter
Step 1
Get started by preheating your oven's broiler and adjusting the oven rack to about 6 inches from the heat source for optimal results. Begin by preparing the grapefruit: carefully remove any visible seeds and use a sharp knife to separate the sections from the membrane. Place the grapefruit halves in a baking dish, cut side up, ready for the next step.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Add butter to the mixture and blend it in by mashing with a fork until the oats are well incorporated. Generously spread half of this delicious oat mixture over each grapefruit half, ensuring a flavorful and crunchy topping.
Step 3
Slide the baking dish under the broiler and watch as the topping transforms into a beautiful golden brown in approximately 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn't burn.
Step 4
Once done, serve and enjoy this delightful and nutritious dish that is sure to brighten up your day with its sweet and tangy flavors.
