Equipment
- Microwave-safe bowl (important for even cooking!)
- Measuring cups and spoons
- A fork or whisk
- Microwave
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk your choice
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup Chopped nuts optional
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preparing Your Oatmeal
- Mix the ingredients: In your microwave-safe bowl, combine the oats, milk, maple syrup, baking powder, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is well mixed.
- Add the fruits and nuts: Fold in the blueberries and nuts if using. The mixture should be spread out evenly in the bowl.
Cooking
- Microwave your oatmeal: Place the bowl in the microwave and cook on high for about 3 minutes. Watch out that it doesn’t fill up too much.
- Check the doneness: Your oatmeal should be fluffy and the liquid mostly absorbed. If it’s not, microwave for an additional 30 seconds.
Notes
- Variety is the spice of life: Feel free to swap out blueberries for other fruits like diced apples, pears, or even a mix of dried fruits.
- Nut lovers: Toasting the nuts before adding them can enhance their flavor.
