Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Maple extract
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar substitute (such as Swerve or sucralose blend)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- Fresh berries (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the almond milk and rolled oats. Stir the mixture gently and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the oats, stirring occasionally, for about 5 to 7 minutes or until the oats are creamy and have absorbed most of the almond milk.
Stir in the vanilla extract, maple extract, brown sugar substitute, and salt. Mix well until the flavors are evenly distributed throughout the oatmeal.
Add in the chopped walnuts and ground cinnamon, stirring to combine. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the oatmeal sit for a minute to thicken further.
Divide the oatmeal into serving bowls. Top with fresh berries if desired for additional flavor and texture.
Serve warm and enjoy your sugar-free maple and brown sugar oatmeal.
