This recipe is the modified version of the stove top cooked Oatmeal Jack's Style. Tailored to those working professionals or students who are crunched on time in the morning. Quick, tasty and healthy. Inspired by "起床困难户”, Amy! 哈哈哈哈哈
Cooking time: 2-3 minutes. Total prep time: <15 minutes
No more excuses not to have the most important meal of the day!!!!
| Ground whole oat groats | 1/4 cup |
| Chia seeds | 1 teaspoon |
| Almond milk | 1/3 cup |
| Ground cinnamon | 1/2 teaspoon |
| Maple syrup (optional) | 1 teaspoon |
| Strawberries | 2-3 |
| Blueberries | handful |
| Raspberries | handful |
| Diced mango | handful |
| Banana cut into coins | 1/2 banana |
| Walnuts | handful |
Toppings: raise berries and cut up strawberries and mango. Cover with a plastic and place them in the refrigerator the night before.
Grind whole oat groats and soak it overnight in a medium-sized microwavable bowl the night before. (Water level should be about a quarter of an inch over the oats).
The next morning, add almond milk and chia seeds to the pre-soaked oats. Stir well.
Cover the bowl with a small plate and place them on a larger plate (to prevent the overflow from cooking).
Cook the oatmeal for about 1 minute. Then stir well again. Put the oat meal back in the microwave for about another 20-30 seconds (depending on the power level of the microwave).
Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave.
Add cinnamon and the optional maple syrup. Mix well.
Cut half a banana into coins add other desired toppings to the oatmeal. Your nutritious breakfast is ready. Bon Appetit!
You may use all 5 fruits as toppings or choose any 3 of the 5 fruits plus the walnuts as toppings. It's your breakfast, so whatever you prefer.
I have also used salted cashews as the substitute for walnuts. They actually taste very good too.
