Cinnamon and raisins are my oatmeal essentials – they're the ultimate combo when it comes to this breakfast classic. This cinnamon raisin oatmeal is my go-to anytime I'm cooking up oats at home, and I just can't resist its delicious simplicity. I like to change up the fruit toppings based on what's in my kitchen, but I've got a soft spot for blueberries and strawberries. And if you want an extra kiss of sweetness, consider drizzling in a little maple syrup or sprinkling a little coconut sugar on top.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. In a saucepan, bring 2 cups of water, the raisins and a pinch of salt to a boil. Give it a gentle stir.
  2. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Stir in 1 cup of oats. Cover with a lid, leaving a slight opening for steam to escape.
  3. Stir the oats occasionally. It usually takes about 10-15 minutes for the oats to absorb the water and achieve a creamy texture. Keep an eye on the pot to avoid overflowing.
  4. When the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency, remove it from the heat and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken up. If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a splash of milk just before serving.
  5. Serve your warm oatmeal with a generous sprinkle of cinnamon and a topping of fresh blueberries, and sprinkle nuts, chia seeds, or any other favorite additions in too if you want them!

Notes

To achieve the perfect oatmeal consistency, consider thinning it out with your favorite milk, whether it's dairy or plant-based - or keep it on the thicker side (my favorite!) Simply add a splash of milk to your oatmeal and stir until it reaches your desired thickness if you want it a little thinner. If you'd like to prepare your breakfast for the week ahead, you can store the oatmeal in fridge-safe containers. When reheating, consider adding a small splash of water, and keep the fruit separate until serving. Enjoy your oatmeal throughout the week with minimal fuss!
