Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 0.5 cup milk (optional, for creamier oatmeal)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts, optional)
- 0.5 cup fresh fruit (such as banana slices or berries, optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and pour in 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats. Stir to combine.
If you prefer creamier oatmeal, add 1/2 cup of milk at this point. Stir well.
Cook the oats, stirring occasionally, for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and are tender.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
Let the oatmeal sit for 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls.
Top each serving with chopped nuts and fresh fruit, if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious bowl of maple and brown sugar oatmeal.
