a favorite food
One of my favorite foods is oatmeal. I usually gussy it up with fruit and nut butters, but every once in awhile I like to keep it simple.
Cinnamon and brown sugar, such classic oatmeal toppings, are often neglected from my daily oats. A recent breakfast refreshed my memory of why they should reenter the rotation.
Just make sure the cap to the cinnamon jar is securely fastened, as a little bit goes a long way. However,I think there can never be too much brown sugar…
Old-Fashioned Oatmeal
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
Boil milk and water on stove. Add oats, stirring occasionally until thickened. Upon serving, mix in toppings.
I never really ate oatmeal until I lived with you, way to peer pressure me into the whole grains haha, I’m glad you did!
That picture of the fancy bowl of oats, and glass jar of water looks very classic.
wanna come over and take food photos for me??
i loooovvveeee oatmeal. have you ever had overnight oats? Soak them overnight and then in the morning, just eat-no need to cook and they turn out soo creamy!
My favorite oatmeal though, involves pb and raisins, a perfect combination of my three loves!
