Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup fresh berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)
- 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, water, and almond milk. Add a pinch of salt for flavor.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer for approximately 5 to 7 minutes, or until they reach your desired creaminess. Continue stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Once the oats are cooked, remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Divide the creamy oats into serving bowls. Top each bowl with your choice of fresh berries and a sprinkle of chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, comforting gluten-free creamy morning oats.
