Ingredients 8
- 1 cup Old Fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup diced strawberries, fresh or frozen*

Method 3
- 01
In a saucepan, add the oats, water, strawberries, maple syrup, salt, and vanilla extract, stirring. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until thickened and the oats are tender, smashing the berries with the back of the spoon or a potato masher as you stir. (Try to smash the majority of the berries to give the oatmeal its pink color.)
- 02
Remove from the heat and stir in the cream. Top with a drizzle of maple syrup and sliced strawberries: this is required and what brings out the strawberry flavor. If desired, add a drizzle of cream.
- 03
Leftovers store refrigerated for up 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave, and make sure to garnish again with fresh strawberries and maple syrup.
