Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup water or milk
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey (optional)
- for garnish fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds (optional toppings)
Instructions
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of water or milk, and a pinch (1/8 teaspoon) of salt. Make sure the bowl is large enough to prevent overflow during cooking.
Stir the ingredients together to combine.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 to 2 minutes, depending on your microwave's power. Check after 1 minute to prevent overcooking or boiling over.
Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave using oven mitts or a towel, as it will be hot.
Stir the oatmeal to achieve a creamy consistency, adding more liquid (water or milk) if needed to reach your desired texture.
If desired, sweeten with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, honey, or your favorite sweetener, and stir to combine.
Top with fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or any other toppings you enjoy.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, hearty bowl of oatmeal!
