Gluten Free Brown Sugar Oatmeal

We eat ALOT of eggs and smoothies in this house but some mornings I am just not feeling it…rather than skipping breakfast, I came up with a quick and easy oatmeal recipe that fills me up doesn’t cause a sugar crash after a few hours.

Homemade Oatmeal is a warm and quick complex carb breakfast option that is healthy and can keep you feeling full all morning long.

Oatmeal is rich in fiber and packed with antioxidants and minerals that boost immunity and promote digestive health.

I love the Gluten Free Sprouted Rolled Oats from One Degree.   All of their products are amazing and on each bag, there is a QR code, so you and your family can trace the ingredients and watch videos of the farmers.  (I am not an affiliate for the company nor have I been paid for promoting their products, I am just a mom who LOVES and BELIEVES in their products and story).

Give the below recipe a try and make it yours by adding nut butters, whey protein, fruit or whatever your heart desires…I love adding a bit of chopped apples in the oatmeal while it is cooking and sprinkling toasted chopped walnuts, craisins and pepitas over the top just before serving. YUM!

Bon Appetite!

If you like Brown Sugar Oatmeal from the box, you will love this oatmeal!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 cup milk (or non-dairy choice)

  • 1 cup sprouted Gluten Free Organic Oats*

  • 1-2 TBS Coconut Sugar, Date Sugar or Pure Maple Syrup

  • ½ tsp Cinnamon

  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract (I use Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste)

  • Pinch of Salt

Directions

  • In a small saucepan, add water, milk, oats, coconut sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract and salt.
  • Stir and bring to a boil, cover with the lid vented/tilted, and simmer over med-low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. (time will depend on how well you like your oatmeal done - I prefer a bit of chew to my oatmeal).
  • Remove from heat and serve with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Optional Toppings: Craisins, Pepita's, Walnuts, Bananas or Fresh Fruit, Nut Butter, Hemp Seeds...the options are endless.
  • *While oats are naturally gluten free, cross contamination is high so I use Sprouted Organic Gluten Free Oats from One Degree. These oats are also glyphosate free.
