Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy like oat or rice milk)
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup fresh fruit (such as banana slices or berries)
- 2 tablespoons seeds (such as sunflower or pumpkin seeds)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, water, and salt.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the oats are creamy and soft, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the vanilla extract, honey or maple syrup, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the oats to sit for a minute to thicken further.
Divide the cooked oats into bowls and top with your choice of fresh fruit and seeds.
Serve warm and enjoy a healthy, nut-free breakfast!
