1
Cook the Oats
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water or milk, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
2
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid.
3
Remove from Heat
Once cooked, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes to thicken slightly.

4
Slice the Banana
While the oats are cooking, peel and slice the banana into thin rounds.
5
Chop the Walnuts
If the walnuts are whole, chop them into smaller pieces for easier topping.
6
Wash the Berries
Rinse the strawberries and blueberries under cold water. Hull the strawberries and slice them if large.

7
Add Oatmeal to Bowl
Spoon the cooked oatmeal into a serving bowl.
8
Top with Fruits and Nuts
Arrange the sliced banana, strawberries, blueberries, chopped walnuts, and raisins on top of the oatmeal.
9
Drizzle with Sweetener
Finish by drizzling honey or maple syrup over the top to taste.
