- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup

- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, whole milk, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once it starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the porridge thickens to your desired consistency.
If using cinnamon, add it to the porridge and stir until well combined.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Divide the porridge into bowls, drizzle with honey or maple syrup, and top with fresh berries or sliced banana.
Serve the porridge warm and enjoy your nut-free creamy classic breakfast.
