Cook this recipe
- rolled oats-2 cups
- whole milk-2 cups
- water-2 cups
- blueberries-1.5 cups
- bananas-2 medium
- pure maple syrup-2 tablespoons
- ground cinnamon-1 teaspoon
- vanilla extract-1 teaspoon
- fine salt-0.25 teaspoons
Rinse the blueberries and slice the bananas into thin rounds; set aside some fruit for topping.
In a medium saucepan, combine water, whole milk, rolled oats, cinnamon, and salt and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Keep the saucepan handle turned inward to help prevent bumps and spills.
Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until the oats are creamy and tender.
Stir carefully because hot oatmeal can bubble and splatter.
Stir in maple syrup, vanilla extract, half the blueberries, and half the bananas; cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the fruit is warmed through.
Remove from heat and let the oatmeal stand for 2 minutes to thicken, then serve topped with the remaining blueberries and banana slices.
Let the oatmeal cool slightly before serving to children.
