Save this for when you make oats the next time! My go to ratio is 1 part oats to 2 parts liquid (I use water, but you can use milk if you want a creamier texture.) DO NOT forget a pinch of salt, it actually makes a HUGE difference. I cook it on high heat for a few minutes while stirring. My favourite fruit to top with is apples. Mind blowing, I know, right!? They just add texture and tartness in the best way. Here are five interesting facts about oats: 1. Oats Hate the Sun: Exposing oats to light can make them lose nutrients and go rancid, so store them in a cool, dark place to keep them fresh and powerful! 2. Only Considered Horse Food: Ancient Romans thought oats were only good for horses, but over time, they became a human food staple-especially in Scotland, where they're cherished. 3. Might Help You Sleep Better: Oats contain melatonin and serotonin-boosting nutrients that can help calm your mind and body, making them a perfect pre-bed snack. 4. Viking Power Snacks: Vikings relied on oats for energy during their sea voyages and raids, using them as an ancient “power food” to fuel their conquests. 5. Porridge Politics: The English mocked oats as "horse food" in the 18th century, but Scots fired back, proudly embracing oats as the secret to their strength! #oats #breakfast #breakfastrecipes #vegetarian
