In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk over medium heat.
Add the ground cinnamon and salt to the saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed most of the almond milk and reached your desired creaminess.
Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the porridge stand for a minute to thicken slightly.
Divide the porridge into two bowls, and top each serving with sliced banana, chopped nuts, and fresh berries.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, dairy-free breakfast!
