The Best Oatmeal Recipe Ever
Or at least in my opinion! I make my oatmeal this way most days, I don't use any milk, and it still makes the creamiest porridge
Ingredients
- ¼ cup Porridge Oats - wholegrain
- ½ cup Water - more if you prefer a looser, creamier porridge
- Pinch Sea Salt
- 1 tsp Chia Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Nut Butter - optional
- Agave Syrup or sweetener of your preference - optional
Instructions
- Place the oats, chia seeds, salt, maple syrup (if using) and water in a small bowl
- Cover and leave overnight (or at least an hour)
- The next morning (or an hour later), warm the oats through gently on the hob until thickened and starting to gently bubble. I also microwave them if I'm in a hurry, for maybe 2 minutes maximum.
- Stir through with nut butter if using.
- Decant into your favourite cereal bowl and enjoy.
- For extra luxury, I add a square of my favorite dairy-free chocolate to languidly melt on top
Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
