Instructions:
- Place the two strips of bacon in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook until crispy, turning occasionally to cook evenly. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat. Set aside to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup almond milk and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- Once the liquid is boiling, add 1/4 cup oats and reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Stir occasionally and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and have reached your desired consistency.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon maple syrup and 1 teaspoon cinnamon into the oatmeal. Mix well to combine.
4. Serve:
- Transfer the oatmeal to a serving bowl.
- Crumble the cooled, crispy bacon strips into small pieces and sprinkle them over the top of the oatmeal.
5. Garnish and Enjoy:
- Optionally, you can drizzle a bit more maple syrup over the top for extra sweetness.
- Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious cinnamon-maple bacon oatmeal with almond milk!
Tips:
- For a vegetarian version, you can replace bacon with coconut bacon or omit it altogether.
- Use steel-cut oats for a chewier texture but prolong the cooking time.
- Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors of the dish.
- Top with nuts or fresh fruits for extra crunch and nutrients.
- If you prefer a creamier oatmeal, use less water or more almond milk.
