A cozy and bright oatmeal bowl featuring old-fashioned rolled oats, fresh raspberries, and a sweet honey drizzle, perfect for a heartwarming breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups (360ml) milk of choice (whole milk, almond milk, or oat milk)
  • ½ cup (75g) fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds) – optional
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt – optional

Instructions

  1. Pour 1 ½ cups (360ml) of milk into a medium saucepan and warm over medium heat until steaming but not boiling, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Stir in 1 cup (90g) old-fashioned rolled oats and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to low-medium to maintain a gentle simmer.
  3. Cook oats uncovered for 7-9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until creamy and tender but not mushy. Add a splash of milk if mixture gets too thick.
  4. Stir in ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until evenly mixed.
  5. Drizzle 2 tablespoons honey into a small bowl; add a teaspoon of warm water if a thinner drizzle is desired and stir gently.
  6. Remove oats from heat and spoon into serving bowls. Scatter ½ cup (75g) fresh raspberries on top.
  7. Add optional toppings like chopped nuts or Greek yogurt if desired.
  8. Drizzle honey over the raspberries and oats.
  9. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Use old-fashioned rolled oats for best texture. Stir gently and often to prevent burning and achieve creaminess. Thin honey with warm water for easier drizzling. Add a splash of milk before serving if oats thicken too much. Frozen raspberries can be used if fresh are unavailable; thaw before use. For vegan option, use plant-based milk and maple syrup instead of honey.
