Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
- 0.5 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rolled oats, unsweetened almond milk, and water.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom.
Once the porridge begins to thicken, usually after about 5 minutes, reduce the heat to low.
Stir in the ground cinnamon and pure vanilla extract, and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, or until the porridge reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit for a minute to cool slightly.
Divide the porridge into two serving bowls.
Top each bowl with the sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and chia seeds.
If desired, drizzle a little honey over the top for added sweetness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your wholesome, low sodium breakfast.
