Tips:
- For added creaminess, you can substitute some or all of the water with milk or a non-dairy alternative such as almond milk or oat milk.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more dates or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter oatmeal.
- To save time, you can chop the fruits the night before and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to cook.
- If you like a crunchier texture, consider adding chopped nuts like walnuts or almonds as a topping.
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg while cooking the oatmeal.
