This oatmeal is versatile, super fast, and it couldn't be easier to make. While pomegranates tend to be found in the Winter, it's still the perfect breakfast any time of year if you substitute them for fresh berries or dried fruit.

Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
  • 1 cup Old-Fashioned Oats
  • ¾ cup Almond Milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon Cane Sugar (or Brown Sugar if you’d prefer)
  • ¼ teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste (or pure vanilla extract)
  • Pinch of Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon All Spice (optional)
  • Topping Options: Pomegranate Arils, Walnuts or Almonds, Maple Syrup, etc.
Preparation Instructions
  1. Add the oats, milk, cane sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt to a small microwave-safe bowl, and then stir to combine.
  2. Heat the oat mixture in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, so that the milk is absorbed and the oatmeal starts to bubble.
  3. Finally Serve right away and top with your favorite toppings.
Notes
In the winter I love pomegranate seeds, because they add a lovely crunch along with whatever nuts you have on hand. While you may love it as is, you can add a little sweetness in the form of a little sprinkle of cane sugar or brown sugar or pure maple syrup. I also like to add a splash of almond milk, because the milk helps cool the oatmeal down.
