Start your day with this comforting and nutritious bowl of creamy Custard Oatmeal. This delicious breakfast is prepared with simple ingredients and has the perfect flavor.
0 In a pot on the stove on medium-high heat add the water and the rolled oats — equal parts of each.
1 Stir the whole time until it’s nice and thick and creamy and the water has evaporated.
4 Note: if you're not using quick cooking rolled oats, you will need to add more water as larger oats take longer to break down and absorb more water.
2 Reduce the heat to low and add 1/3 cup very cold water + 1 whisked egg. Whisk vigorously until a thick custard-like consistency.
3 Note: We add cold water so that we can bring down the temperature and avoid scrambling the egg.
5 Stir in vanilla bean, vanilla bean paste, or pure vanilla extract off the heat.
6 Pour into a bowl and top it off with any fruits, seeds, or toppings you love. Enjoy
