Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2 tbsp. yogurt, whey or lemon juice
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 1 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Mix warm water, whey, and oats in a glass container and cover. I use a pint jar.
  2. Let it soak for at least 6 hours or overnight in a warm place.
  3. In the morning, boil the cold water and salt.
  4. Add soaked oats mixture and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring to prevent scorching.
  5. Remove from heat when thickened and serve.

Notes

  • I often add sour cream, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to my bowl. 
  • Dried fruit that has been soaked overnight is also yummy!
  • This recipe doesn't keep very well, but you can add water, milk or butter to heat again if needed.
  • You can try other grains as well, such as einkorn, spelt, or barley.
