A simple and nutritious low calorie oatmeal recipe perfect for a healthy breakfast. Made with rolled oats, unsweetened almond milk, a touch of honey or maple syrup, and topped with fresh mixed berries, this oatmeal is both delicious and satisfying while keeping calories low.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries)


Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Collect all the ingredients on your countertop to ensure a smooth cooking process.
  2. Cook Oats: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the rolled oats and unsweetened almond milk. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and cook until the mixture simmers and thickens, which should take about 5 minutes.
  3. Add Sweetener and Spice: Remove the saucepan from heat once the oatmeal reaches your preferred consistency. Stir in the honey or maple syrup along with the ground cinnamon evenly throughout the oatmeal.
  4. Serve: Transfer the oatmeal into serving bowls and generously top with fresh mixed berries for a vibrant and tasty presentation.
  5. Enjoy: Serve the oatmeal warm and enjoy a healthy, low calorie breakfast option.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to control sweetness according to your taste.
  • Use any combination of fresh berries or other fruits as preferred.
  • For a creamier texture, let the oatmeal rest covered for a couple of minutes before serving.
  • To make it vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey.
