- 2 tablespoons Golden syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon powder

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rolled oats and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-high heat.
Once simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir occasionally and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the oats begin to soften and thicken.
Add the low-fat milk or milk alternative, and continue to cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats reach your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the golden syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon powder. Mix well to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Divide the oats between two bowls. Top each serving with fresh fruit and scatter the unsalted nuts on top.
Serve immediately, and enjoy the warm, comforting taste of Low Sodium Golden Syrup Oats.
