Notes
- Don't over cook your oats. If you over cook, oatmeal may turn soupy with no texture. I like some texture in my oatmeal.
- You could add sugar, honey for sweetness. If you prefer natural sweetness, try adding a mashed banana or pureed dates.
- You can add chocolate chips on top of hot oatmeal. Specially if you are making for kids.
- You can opt for Soy milk, Almond milk. Oat milk instead of regular milk.
- Don't discard leftover cooked oatmeal. Instead make this oatmeal cake.
