Comfort food at its best! A nutritious way to start your day. Make sure your oatmeal is fresh and good quality! My favorite restaurant to eat breakfast in town serves their oatmeal just like this. Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups water |
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional) |
2/3 cup old-fashioned oatmeal |
1/2 banana, peeled and sliced |
2 tablespoons raisins or 2 tablespoons dried cranberries |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
milk (soymilk, half and half, rice milk) |
Directions:
1. In small pot bring the water and salt to boil.
2. Slowly stir in the *oatmeal, using a fork to break up any lumps. Once boiling has subsided, cover pan and cook on medium-low for 10-12 minutes.
3. Remove pan from heating element and let sit, covered, for an additional 2-3 minutes.
4. Transfer oatmeal to serving bowl and top with the sliced bananas, raisins and brown sugar. Serve with milk or milk substitute on the side if you wish.
5. *NOTE: for creamier consistency, add the oatmeal {{before}} bringing water to the boil.
6. Yield: 1 large serving or 2 small servings.
