Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all the ingredients you'll need for the recipe.
- Measure out 1/2 cup of water, 1/4 cup of oats, 2 teaspoons of dry cocoa powder, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
- Pour the 1/2 cup of water into a small saucepan and bring it to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and add the 1/4 cup of oats to the saucepan.
- Stir the oats gently to ensure they are evenly distributed in the water.
- Allow the oats to cook for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until they start to soften and thicken.
- Add the 2 teaspoons of dry cocoa powder to the saucepan. Stir well to thoroughly combine the cocoa with the oats, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add the 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth and evenly colored.
- Let the mixture simmer for another 2-3 minutes or until the oatmeal has reached your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to keep the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the saucepan.
- Once the oatmeal is fully cooked and the consistency is to your liking, remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Pour the decadent chocolate oatmeal into a serving bowl.
- Enhance your dish with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, sliced bananas, a dollop of yogurt, or a sprinkle of nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Serve the oatmeal warm and enjoy your decadent chocolate treat!
Tips:
- Use rolled oats for a creamier texture, or opt for steel-cut oats for a chewier consistency.
- For added richness, you can replace water with milk or a plant-based milk alternative.
- Enhance the flavor by adding a pinch of salt and a splash of vanilla extract.
- Top with fresh berries, nuts, or a dollop of yogurt for an extra burst of flavor and nutrition.
- Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less brown sugar, or substitute with honey or maple syrup.
