Multi-grain oatmeal with blueberries for breakfast

Start your day with a nutritious and delicious breakfast by preparing multi-grain oatmeal with blueberries. This recipe combines the heartiness of multi-grain oats with the sweet burst of blueberries, offering a delightful and wholesome meal to fuel your morning.

Ingredients:

1 cup milk (3.25% fat)
240g
1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal
40g
1 cup frozen blueberries
160g

Instructions:

1. Heat the Milk:
- Pour 1 cup of milk into a medium-sized saucepan.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and gently bring the milk to a simmer, but do not let it boil.
2. Add the Oatmeal:
- Once the milk starts to simmer, add 1/2 cup of multi-grain oatmeal to the saucepan.
- Stir well to combine the oatmeal with the milk.
3. Cook the Oatmeal:
- Reduce the heat to low and let the oatmeal cook.
- Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency.
4. Add Blueberries:
- After the oatmeal has cooked, add 1 cup of frozen blueberries.
- Stir the blueberries into the oatmeal, allowing them to thaw and release their juices, which will color and flavor the oatmeal.
5. Simmer Together:
- Continue to cook the oatmeal with the blueberries for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. The blueberries will become warm, soft, and slightly incorporated into the oatmeal.
6. Serve:
- Once the oatmeal and blueberries are thoroughly heated and mixed, remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Spoon the oatmeal into serving bowls.
7. Optional Toppings:
- If desired, you can add extra toppings like a drizzle of honey, a sprinkle of nuts or seeds, or a dash of cinnamon for added flavor.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve hot and enjoy your nutritious and delicious multi-grain oatmeal with blueberries!

Tips:

- For a creamier consistency, cook the oatmeal with milk instead of water.

- You can use fresh blueberries when they are in season for an extra fresh flavor.

- Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor of the oatmeal.

- Top your oatmeal with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added sweetness and depth of flavor.

- Prepare a larger batch of oatmeal and store in the fridge for a quick and easy reheat on busy mornings.

Enjoy your multi-grain oatmeal with blueberries as a fantastic start to your day. This simple yet delicious breakfast is not only healthy but also easy to prepare, ensuring you have the energy you need for whatever comes your way.
