- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk of your choice (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- Toppings of your choice (fresh or dried fruit, nuts, seeds, nut butter)
In a small saucepan, combine the oats, milk, cinnamon, and salt.
Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup or honey, if using.
Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
For a creamier oatmeal, use more milk. For a thicker oatmeal, use less milk.
You can also cook oatmeal in the microwave. Combine the oats, milk, cinnamon, and salt in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until the oats are cooked through.
Overnight oats are a great option for a quick and easy breakfast. Combine the oats, milk, cinnamon, and salt in a jar or container. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, stir in your favorite toppings.
