Cook: Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until thickened.
Serve: Remove from heat and let it sit for a few minutes. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Tips and Variations:
Add-ins: Get creative with toppings! Try adding chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts), seeds (chia, flax), fresh fruit (berries, bananas), or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Spice it up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
Make-ahead: You can make a big batch of oatmeal and store it in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat in the microwave when ready to eat.
Sweetener: If you prefer a sweeter oatmeal, you can add a touch of honey or maple syrup to the pot while cooking.
This recipe is a great base for a healthy and delicious breakfast. Enjoy!
