INGREDIENTS:
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup milk (your choice)
- Salt (to taste)
- Optional: Sweeteners (honey, maple syrup), flavorings (vanilla extract, cinnamon), toppings (fruits, nuts, seeds)
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Combine Ingredients:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the oats, milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir to ensure the oats are evenly coated in the milk.
2. Microwave:
Cover the bowl with a plate or microwave-safe lid to prevent splatters. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the oats are cooked to your desired consistency.
3. Stir And Add Toppings:
Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir gently. Add any desired sweeteners, flavorings, or toppings.
TIPS:
- Adjust Cooking Time:
The exact cooking time may vary depending on your microwave’s power and desired consistency. Start with 1 minute and add more time in 30-second increments if needed.
- Prevent Overflow:
To avoid oatmeal from bubbling over, use a large microwave-safe bowl and cover it loosely.
- Experiment With flavours:
Add your favorite ingredients to customize your oatmeal. Try adding a spoonful of peanut butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a handful of berries.
