🍽 Ingredients

• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1/2 cup Rolled oats
• Pinch Salt
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract

📖 Instructions

1. First things first, gather your ingredients. Make sure your coconut milk is nice and creamy, not watery. You'll also want to find some good quality oats, not the instant kind. Those won't have the same texture.
2. Next up, grab your medium saucepan. Pour in the coconut milk and let it heat over medium heat. Don't rush this part; you want a gentle simmer, not a boil. It's kinda like making a slow cooker recipe in a saucepan!
3. Once the coconut milk is warm, add your rolled oats and a pinch of salt. Give it a good stir with your whisk to combine everything. You want to make sure there are no lumps of dry oats hiding at the bottom of the pan.
4. Now, let it simmer! This is the important part. Keep stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and burning. It takes about 5-7 minutes for the oats to soften and absorb the coconut milk, and trust me, you'll know when they are perfect! They'll look creamy and thick
5. While the oatmeal simmers, get that small bowl ready. In it, combine your maple syrup and vanilla extract. If you're feeling fancy (or just like extra flavor), add a tiny bit of cinnamon. Stir till it's all smooth.
6. Once the oats are cooked and creamy (like a dream!), remove the saucepan from the heat. Add your sweetener mixture and stir it in gently. This is where the magic happens, right? The sweet and creamy goodness of the coconut milk blends with the maple sweetness.
7. Now for the fun part! Time to serve up this yummy bowl of comfort. You can totally eat this plain, but don't be afraid to add toppings. I love adding fresh berries, shredded coconut, or even a sprinkle of toasted nuts. Sometimes I even sneak in a tiny bit of chocolate. Don't judge.
8. Enjoy! Seriously, just enjoy this. Its perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast, a cozy night in or a quick and healthy meal on the go!

📝 Notes

• Feel free to adjust the amount of maple syrup to your liking. You can add other spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
• Make sure to use full-fat coconut milk for the best creaminess and flavor.
• If you are using frozen fruit, let it thaw for about 10 minutes before adding. Frozen fruits can make your oatmeal water-down
