Prep time: 5 minutes

Cook time: 10 minutes

Servings: 1

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup large flake oats
• 1 cup non-dairy milk (I used soy milk)
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp sweetener (I used maple syrup)

Toppings

• Fruit (I used strawberries, blueberries & banana)
• Nuts (I used walnuts)
• Nut butter (I used almonds)
• Hemp seeds

Equipment

• Small pot

Instructions

1. To a small pot, add non-dairy milk, large flake oats, cinnamon and sweetener. Put on medium heat, stirring frequently, until the liquid is absorbed and the perfect creamy texture is achieved. If needed, add a splash more milk to make it more creamy.
2. Taste and add more sweetener if you like a sweeter oatmeal.
3. Serve with fruit such as berries and banana, nuts (I used walnuts), nut or seed butter, and hemp seeds. Enjoy!

Notes

*This easy stovetop oatmeal can also be made nut-free by substituting seeds & seed butter for the nuts and nut butter (or omitting altogether).

*For a sugar-free version, omit the sweetener or use a natural sweetener such as blended dates.
