I know what you're thinking. Oatmeal? Eh. Moving on.
Well guess what? I'm here to make you fall in love with oatmeal.
Please, y'all. Don't scroll past this recipe because you've been burned by those oatmeal packets from our childhood. You know what I'm talking about -- the brown packets that you add hot water to ... and end up being about 4 bites of mush. This is not the oatmeal we grew up with, I promise!
This is hearty, full of sweet flavor, and the perfect accompaniment to a hot cup of coffee on a cold morning. And the coconut milk gives it some healthy fat to make it more satisfying. Drizzle with some warm maple syrup for a little bit of pumpkin spice heaven. Maybe a scrambled egg on the side to balance out the sweetness.
Go on, now. I'll be here when you're ready to tell me how much you LOVE oatmeal.
