Oats are among the healthiest grains on earth. They’re a gluten-free whole grain and a great source of important vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants.
Dietitians agree that oatmeal is one of the best breakfast foods around, and it can help reduce diabetes risk and promote weight loss too.
Now, Here’s a simple trick that will completely change your oatmeal’s flavor, no milk, no sugar required.
Toast them in Butter.
Yes, it’s that simple, and the whole cooking process is done in about ten minutes, Simply set a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium-low heat. When it feels hot, add your oats and butter and toast them, stir for about 2 minutes until you see them start to darken in color. They’ll give off a toasty smell and turn golden in spots, After that, simply add your cooking liquid (water, milk or mix them) and cook normally according the directions on the package.
Oatmeal is often thought of as just a carrier for other flavors, like maple syrup, honey, etc. Toasting the oats before cooking creates a more pronounced flavor that you’ll probably really enjoy. You won’t need nearly as many toppings because of the extra flavour created by the toasting.
