Ingredients
- ½ cup oats old-fashioned
- ¾-1 cup milk or water or a mix
- 1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
- ½ tsp. vanilla
- ¼-½ tsp. cinnamon to taste
- ⅛-¼ tsp. salt to taste
- 1 Tbsp. butter optional
- roasted pecans optional
Instructions
- Combine the Ingredients: Add the oats, ¾-cup of the milk and/or water, maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Mix until combined.
- Cook the Oats: After roughly 2 minutes the liquid should start to bubble. Give everything a good stir and reduce the heat to medium-low. Continue cooking and stirring occasionally for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and thickened to your desired consistency.
- Thin it Out: If you would like them to be a little thinner, add the remaining liquid. (Remember, the oats continue to thicken as they cool, so err on the side of them being a little more runny in the pot.)
- Serve the oats with butter, toasted pecans, and additional cinnamon, if desired.*
Notes
- *Nutritional information is calculated without butter or additional toppings.
- Prep-Ahead Instructions:
- You can toast the pecans in advance.
- Storage Directions:
- Keep leftover oatmeal in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days. Warm the oatmeal back up in a pot, adding extra liquid as needed.
- To freeze, cover the oatmeal tightly in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 5 to 6 months. Allow it to thaw in the fridge, then reheat it on the stove, stirring in additional milk or water to get desired consistency.
- Recipe Tips
- Pay attention. The kind of oats are important. Old-fashioned and quick-cooking oats require different amounts of liquid.
- You choose. Light or dark brown sugar or a sub, like coconut sugar, all work.
- Go halfsies. Use half water, half milk for the best results.
- Double up. Make a large batch for an easy morning to feed the whole family.
- Plus it up. Top this oatmeal off with nuts, seeds, or even chocolate chips.
