Great recipe. But we need to remember this dish at 62g is already half the recommended daily intake (at least 130g) of carbohydrates according to the Mayo Clinic and WHO. Fruit like banana or pineapple could be sweet enough. Maple syrup doubtful.
Best ever. Love his quick and easy breakfast. Kids love it and make it too!!
These oats are my go to. They are delicious and so easy to make.
Simple and delicious breakfast.
Love love love this. I made two batches so that two breakfasts were accommodated. Delicious, and so easy to make. Reminded me a lot of muesli from the 70’s.
p.s. I used all plant-based milk – no water.
I make mine in a 12 oz mason jar and use oat milk. I heat it in the microwave in the morning because I prefer my oatmeal hot, not chilled. Omitting the maple syrup and adding peaches or raisins gives enough of a sweet taste for me. This is a versatile recipe I’m happy to add to my recipe book.
Great, used 1/2 of of the maple syrup.
Tried this last night and ate it this morning. It was delicious. Topped it with banana and shredded coconut-flakes. Will make this many times I guess.
Love this recipe as a good vegan base! Some have yogurt added, but this one is just perfect for a fresh start to the day.
Looks good
