Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.75 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir occasionally for about 5 minutes, or until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the water.
Stir in the unsweetened almond milk, fresh or frozen blueberries, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
Continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the blueberries begin to burst and the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit for a minute to cool slightly.
Serve the oatmeal into bowls and top with sliced almonds and chia seeds, if desired.
Enjoy your warm, comforting, and dairy-free blueberry oatmeal!
