Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 2 cups Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Milk (optional, for serving)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional, for serving)
- optional Fresh fruit or nuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Place a medium skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Let it melt completely.
Add the rolled oats to the skillet and stir them constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula to coat them evenly in butter.
Continue toasting the oats for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they turn golden brown and release a nutty aroma. Be careful not to burn them.
In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water and 0.25 teaspoon of salt to a gentle boil.
Once the oats are toasted, carefully add them to the boiling water. Stir well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the oats simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the water is absorbed and the oats reach your desired consistency.
Remove the oatmeal from heat and let it sit, covered, for 2 minutes to finish thickening.
Serve the toasted oatmeal warm. Add a splash of milk, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and top with your favorite fresh fruit or nuts if desired.
