Description
A really good bowl of oatmeal on a chilly morning is warm, comforting, and satisfying. Let me show you how I like to make it!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups water
- 1 cup whole milk*
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 heaping teaspoon ground cinnamon, or to taste
Topping ideas: butter, brown sugar, toasted pecans, maple syrup, cream, chopped dried fruit
Instructions
- Add water, milk, oats, and salt to a pan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- When the liquid begins to boil, turn the heat down to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the liquid is mostly absorbed and the oats are tender, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and stir in cinnamon.
- Divide into bowls, and top with butter, brown sugar, toasted pecans, maple syrup, cream, chopped dried fruit, or all of the above!
Notes
*We like our oatmeal a little on the thicker side. Add up to 1/2 cup more milk for a thinner consistency.
