Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (45g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup (240ml) water
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
  • 1 tbsp (12g) light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) pure grade A maple syrup
  • 1/4 tsp (0.5g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp (1.25ml) pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp (15g) unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) heavy cream

Instructions:

  1. Place the dry oats in the saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly for 1–2 minutes until the oats smell toasted and nutty.
  2. Pour in the water and salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low.
  3. Simmer uncovered for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is mostly absorbed and the texture is velvety.
  4. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and butter.
  5. Drizzle in the maple syrup and stir in the heavy cream for a luxurious finish.
