Ingredients
Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal
- 1 ounce Freeze-Dried Strawberries
- 1 cup Whole Milk
- 2 cups Water
- 1/4 cup Cane Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 cups Rolled Oats
Oatmeal Toppings
- 1 pint Fresh Strawberries diced
- 4 tablespoons Heavy Whipping Cream
Instructions
- Start by pulsing the freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor or blender for about 30 seconds, 'til ground into a fine powder.*
- Next add the milk and water to a large saucepan over medium heat. Then whisk in the strawberry powder, sugar, salt and vanilla, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
- Once your strawberry milk starts simmering, add the oatmeal and stir with a wooden spoon 'til well combined. Then reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer for about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the oats have softened, spoon your strawberry oatmeal into a bowl and top with fresh, diced strawberries and a splash of cream. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
*Instead of freeze-dried strawberries, you can also substitute with about 1 & 1/2 cups of fresh strawberries, leaving them in chunks or blending them up for a few seconds to mash them up. Frozen strawberries will also work, but it's best to let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight before making the recipe.
How do you store leftover strawberry oatmeal?
You can store leftover strawberry oatmeal in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator, and then reheat it in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave for a few minutes on high before serving. You may have to add a splash of milk for extra moisture.
