Ingredients

2 servings

1 cup rolled oats
1 ½ cups water
½ cup whole milk
¼ tsp fine salt
1 tbsp unsalted butter
Ingredient note
Though high-fat foods can worsen reflux, this recipe has only a small amount of butter (~1 1/2 teaspoons per serving), making it likely fine for many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)

For serving

fresh fruit, nuts, or a pinch of ground cinnamon, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the water, milk, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
2
Stir in the rolled oats and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring frequently, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and the porridge is thick and creamy, about 5–7 minutes.
