Custard Oatmeal
Yummy, creamy oatmeal - almost like dessert!
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Fresh berries optional topping
- Sliced bananas optional topping
- Chopped nuts optional topping
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine rolled oats, milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, honey, and vanilla extract.
- Once the oats have absorbed most of the milk (about 5-7 minutes), reduce the heat to low. Gradually whisk in the egg mixture, stirring constantly to avoid scrambling the egg.
- Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the oatmeal thickens and becomes creamy.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately. Top with fresh berries, sliced bananas, and chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
