- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon

In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, milk, and salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the oats from sticking.
Add in the maple syrup, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon, stirring well to combine. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes or until the oats are thickened and creamy.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Serve the oatmeal hot, sprinkling with chopped nuts and diced fruit if desired for additional flavor and texture.
