Equipment

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 4 strawberries, chopped (plus more for topping, if desired)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • Honey, maple syrup, or granulated sugar to sweeten , if desired

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, heat milk until boiling.
  • Add oats, strawberries, and salt. Stir to combine and then lower heat and simmer until tender and creamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Spoon into a bowl and top with additional strawberries and more milk (or heavy cream for richness).

Notes

  • Milk: while you can use water or a plant-based milk, the results might not be as creamy.
  • This oatmeal is not overly sweet. Feel free to add honey, agave, maple syrup or sugar to sweeten to taste.
