Ingredients
Basic Homemade Oatmeal
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup milk of choice or more water (dairy, non-dairy, nut)
- pinch of salt
Strawberry Chocolate
- strawberries, sliced
- mini chocolate chips
- milk or cream (splash)
Blueberry Almond
- blueberries
- sliced almonds
- almond butter
Banana Coconut
- banana, sliced
- shredded coconut
- nutmeg, dash
- coconut milk, creamer (splash)
Brown Sugar Cinnamon
- brown sugar
- cinnamon
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the oats, water, milk, and salt over medium-high heat.
- Once it comes to a low boil, reduce the heat and let simmer until it reaches your desired thickness. Stir occasionally to keep the oatmeal from burning on the bottom of the pan.
- After the oatmeal has cooked through for about 5 minutes, remove the pan from the heat.
- Add desired toppings and a splash of additional milk if you would like.
Notes
- 1 cup of liquid is the amount needed for this recipe. It can be all water, all milk, or 1/2 cup of each. When cooking oatmeal, it is a 1:2 ratio of oats to liquid. Milk will help give it a creamier texture.
- Also, a lot of recipes call for the liquid to come to a boil before adding the oats. I have found that step isn't necessary. I think the texture turns out just as great, if not better when it's all brought to a boil together.
