I saw a video on how to get really creamy whipped like oats and here is my take on it. Any sweetener or toppings can be subbed here with great results. I like to soak my oats overnight for quick cooking- I soak them in 1/2 cup water with 1 tbs plain yogurt and add 1/2 cup water in the morning when I cook them. They take 5 minutes. Ingredients:
1/2 cup old-fashioned oatmeal |
1 cup water (can use milk for even creamier oats) |
1 pinch salt |
1/2 banana, sliced |
1 dash cinnamon (optional) |
1 tablespoon raisins |
1 tablespoon walnuts |
1 tablespoon maple syrup, the real kind |
1 tablespoon milk or 1 tablespoon cream |
Directions:
1. combine oats and water or milk with banana, salt and cinnamon if using (sometimes i add raisins now to plump them up too).
2. bring to a simmer over medium high heat and reduce to medium.
3. stir vigorously and oats will take on a creamy look and not have as much of a shape individually, banana will mostly get beaten into them.
4. cook until the consistency you like or most liquid is absorbed.
5. top with nuts, syrup and cream, and the other half of the banana sliced if you want.
