Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 2 cups Water
- 1 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Stevia or monk fruit sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon Butter flavor extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Golden syrup substitute (see below)
Instructions
Start by preparing the golden syrup substitute. In a small saucepan, mix 1/4 cup of water with 2 tablespoons of stevia or monk fruit sweetener and 1 tablespoon of molasses. Heat over medium heat until the mixture simmers, then reduce the heat to low and let it thicken slightly, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the rolled oats and 2 cups of water. Bring to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the unsweetened almond milk and stir well.
Stir in the vanilla extract, butter flavor extract, salt, and the prepared golden syrup substitute. Mix thoroughly until combined.
Simmer the oats for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have reached your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more stevia or monk fruit sweetener if desired.
Remove from heat and let sit for a minute to thicken further.
Serve hot, garnished with your choice of toppings such as sliced almonds, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
