Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups milk (any kind)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar (optional)
  • Toppings of choice (such as sliced banana, fresh berries, or chopped walnuts)

Method
 

  1. Set a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the oats and toast, stirring often, for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
  2. Pour in the milk and salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes until tender and thickened.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup if using. Spoon into bowls, add toppings, and serve immediately.

Notes

Leftover oatmeal will firm up in the fridge. Reheat it with a splash of milk to bring back the creamy consistency.
