2 servings
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 ½ cups water
- ½ cup whole milk
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Whole milk is richer, so a lower-fat milk will make the dish a little less creamy. This matters most in baking and custards, where the extra fat adds richness. - ¼ tsp fine salt
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - 2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
Can be omittedmaple syrup
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.
