Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups milk (or almond milk for dairy-free option)
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (for ghostly drizzle)
- 0.5 teaspoon black sesame seeds or mini dark chocolate chips (for ghost eyes)
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the fresh blueberries to the saucepan, reserving a few for garnish if desired. Stir well.
Cook the oatmeal for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and chia seeds if using.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls.
Scoop the Greek yogurt into a piping bag or a small plastic sandwich bag with a tiny corner snipped off. Pipe ghost shapes on top of each bowl of oatmeal.
Use black sesame seeds or mini dark chocolate chips to create the ghost eyes and mouths.
Garnish with the reserved fresh blueberries and serve immediately for a spooky and wholesome breakfast!
