A wholesome and satisfying breakfast combining creamy oatmeal with crunchy granola, topped with fruit and nuts for the perfect balance of texture and flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups milk or water
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1–2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup granola (any variety)
  • 1/2 cup fresh fruit (berries, banana, or apple slices)
  • 2 tbsp nuts or seeds (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, bring milk or water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
  2. Stir in rolled oats and a pinch of salt.
  3. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and creamy—about 5 minutes for rolled oats or 2–3 minutes for quick oats.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract.
  5. Spoon the oatmeal into serving bowls.
  6. Top each bowl with granola and fresh fruit.
  7. Sprinkle with cinnamon and add nuts or seeds if desired.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

  • Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy.
  • Use milk instead of water for a creamier texture.
  • Can be prepared with instant or steel-cut oats based on preference.
  • Store cooked oatmeal and granola separately to maintain freshness.
  • For a vegan option, use plant-based milk and maple syrup.
