Ingredients
  • 2 cup milk (either cow's milk or soy/oat milk)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup large flake oats (can use old fashioned oats, but must cook longer)
    • TOPPINGS
  • 1/2 tbsp melted unsalted butter (I use Becel unsalted vegan butter)
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 1.5 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 1 tsp water
    • GLAZE
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese (I use vegan cream cheese for vegan option)
  • 1 tbsp milk (either cow's milk or soy/oat milk)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tbsp confectioners’ sugar (icing sugar)
Instructions
  1. In a large saucepan add milk, vanilla and oats and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce to low heat and continue to cook, stirring often until oatmeal begins to thicken. (For large flake oats- ~4-6 mins. For quick oats and steel- cut oats cook according to oat package instructions.)
  2. While oatmeal is cooking, for topping: In a small bowl mix melted butter, brown sugar, water and cinnamon powder until well combined.
  3. For glaze: microwave cream cheese in a small bowl for 10 seconds or until just melted. Stir in confectioners’ sugar, milk and vanilla until creamy.
  4. Remove oatmeal from heat and split into two bowls. Top with topping and glaze as desired. May also top with roasted pecans.
