1. Boil the Water:
- Pour 1 cup of water into a saucepan.

Tips:

- Use a non-stick pot to reduce the chances of oats sticking to the bottom.

- For a creamier consistency, replace some or all of the water with milk or a non-dairy alternative.

- Sweeten your oat bran with a natural sweetener such as honey or maple syrup, if desired.

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

- Top with fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds for added texture and nutritional benefits.
