Method

Preparation of Oatmeal

  1. 1

    Cook the Oats

    In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water (or milk) and 1 tsp of salt to a boil. Stir in 1 cup of rolled oats. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are cooked to your desired consistency.

Adding Fruits and Nuts

  1. 2

    Mix in Dried Fruits

    Once the oats are cooked, remove them from heat and stir in 1 tbs each of dried cranberries, dried apricots, and raisins. Let it sit for a minute to allow the fruits to soften.

  2. 3

    Add Nuts

    Add 2 tbs each of chopped walnuts and chopped almonds to the oatmeal mixture. Stir well to combine.

Finishing Touches

  1. 4

    Sweeten and Flavor

    Drizzle 1 tbs of honey or maple syrup over the oatmeal and sprinkle with 1 tsp of cinnamon. Stir to mix the sweetener and cinnamon thoroughly.

  2. 5

    Add Fresh Fruit

    Top the oatmeal with fresh fruit such as banana slices or berries according to your preference.
