Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 2 cups Low-fat milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, low-fat milk, and water.
Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and are creamy.
Stir in the honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Adjust sweetness with more honey if desired.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the porridge stand for 2-3 minutes to thicken further.
In a small bowl, mix the mixed berries with chia seeds and ground cinnamon, stirring gently to coat the berries evenly.
Divide the creamy porridge between two bowls.
Top each portion with the berry-chia mixture.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat, creamy, and fruity breakfast porridge.
