Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups water
  • ½ cup milk (whole or low-fat)
  • 1.5 cups fresh blueberries
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • ½ cup nuts (walnuts, almonds, or pecans, roughly chopped)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pour 2 cups water into a medium saucepan and set the heat to high until the water boils — you'll see large bubbles rolling rapidly across the surface, about 4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add 1 cup rolled oats and 0.25 teaspoon salt to the boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon until the oats are fully submerged and mixed evenly.

  3. 3

    Lower the heat to medium and stir the oatmeal once every 30 seconds for 3 minutes until it thickens — the mixture should look creamy and hold its shape slightly when you push it with the spoon.

  4. 4

    Pour in 0.5 cup milk and stir gently until the milk is fully mixed in and the oatmeal looks smooth and pourable, about 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Divide the warm oatmeal between two bowls, filling each about three-quarters full.

  6. 6

    Top each bowl with 0.75 cup fresh blueberries, scattering them evenly across the surface.

  7. 7

    Drizzle 1.5 tablespoons honey over the blueberries in each bowl in a thin stream across the top.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle 0.25 cup roughly chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, or pecans) over each bowl for crunch.
