Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons shredded coconut
- 1 banana
- 0.5 cup fresh berries
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (e.g., almonds or pecans)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats, coconut milk, water, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Reduce the heat to low and let the oatmeal simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Once cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the shredded coconut for an extra burst of coconut flavor.
Divide the oatmeal into two serving bowls.
Top each bowl with slices of banana, fresh berries, and a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
For added sweetness, drizzle with a little extra maple syrup if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, tropical Coconut Cream Oatmeal!
