1
Boil the Liquid
In a medium-sized saucepan, bring the water or milk to a boil over medium heat.
2
Add Oats and Salt
Once the liquid is boiling, stir in the rolled oats and salt. Reduce the heat to low.
3
Simmer
Let the mixture simmer for about 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid.

4
Sweeten the Oatmeal
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the honey or maple syrup to sweeten the oatmeal as desired.
5
Add Fresh Fruit
Top your oatmeal with fresh fruit of your choice, such as sliced bananas or a handful of berries.
6
Sprinkle Nuts and Spices
Add a sprinkle of nuts for crunch, and dust with cinnamon for additional flavor.
7
Finish with Seeds
Finally, add chia seeds or flaxseeds on top for a nutritional boost.
