Hearty oatmeal cereal recipe
Forget mushy oatmeal! Honey, oats and almonds give this hearty oatmeal cereal recipe a chewy texture that’s better than ordinary oatmeal!
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats not instant or quick cooking
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
- Place a medium-sized skillet over medium heat and add butter, water, honey and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve the honey and salt.
- When the mixture comes to a bubble, stir in the oatmeal and cinnamon. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring halfway through. (If your skillet doesn’t have a lid, carefully cover the pan with aluminum foil.)
- Remove the lid, stir in sliced almonds then remove from heat. Serve nice and warm. Enjoy!
Notes
Be sure to use old-fashioned oats, not instant or quick cooking, to get that wonderful chewy texture!
