- 1.5 cups Rolled Oats
- 1 cup Almond Milk
- 1tsp Cinnamon
- 1tsp Vanilla Extract
- 3-4 cups Water
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup Cinnamon Applesauce
- 1/4 cup Slivered Almonds
- Pinch of salt
- Heaping handful of Raisins
At about 1am I woke up to a good "early" morning with a wonderful smell
of the oats cooking. With a wondering mind I got up to check on it. An it's
a good thing I did because what was supposed to take 7-9 hours on low heat
only took 3 hours!!! If I would have used steel cut oats it most likely would
have taken that long but I only had rolled oats. So I guess it takes 3! After
transferring the oats over to a container I gave it a little taste an it was DELICIOUS !!
I can't wait to add a little cold almond milk to it tomorrow morning and have it for
breakfast!! My only thing is, you might need to add a bit more brown sugar which
you can happily add at any time without stressing over measurements. As well as
reduce the amount of applesauce to 1/4 a cup instead of 1/2 or use a regular plain
applesauce instead of a flavored like I did. Also you can add any kind of nuts or dried
fruit an you can add flax seeds, chia seeds, protein powder, etc. I can't wait to experiment
with this recipe further and see what really works best!!!! Stay tuned!!
