Instructions
- 1
Combine rolled oats, water (or milk), and salt in a medium saucepan. If using frozen berries, you can add about half of them to the pot now to warm through.
- 2
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
- 3
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid. For a creamier texture, cook a bit longer; for a chewier texture, cook for less time.
- 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the remaining fresh berries (if not added earlier) and honey. Add a pinch of cinnamon if desired.
- 5
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Garnish with chopped nuts if using. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty breakfast!
