One step at a time
Let’s make it
- In a medium saucepan, bring water and milk to a gentle boil over medium heat.
- Add oats, salt, and cinnamon; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until oats are tender and mixture is creamy, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon maple syrup.
- Divide porridge evenly among bowls, drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup on top, and sprinkle with toasted pecans before serving.
A little kitchen know-how
Stir continuously while cooking to prevent the oats from sticking and ensure a creamy texture.
Storage & leftovers
Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days; reheat gently on stove or microwave until steaming hot.
