About the Recipe

220 Calories · 7.1 g Protein · 5.4 g Fiber
Breakfast
Gluten-free · Nut-free

Raisins are not only a great source of fiber, but they also add a sweet flavor with no added sugar.

Oats do not contain gluten but can be manufactured in a facility with gluten. For severe allergies, it’s best to buy oats  labeled gluten free.

Avoid using nuts or nut-based milks as a topping if you have a nut allergy.

Ingredients

Makes 2 Servings


  • 1 c (181 g) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/4 c (40 g) raisins
  • 1/4 tsp (1.2 mL) cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp (0.6 mL) iodized salt
  • 1/4 c (60 mL) vanilla soy or rice milk

Directions

  1. Combine 2 c (480 mL) of water with all ingredients, except nondairy milk, in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil.



  2. Lower heat, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.



  3. Serve plain or with vanilla nondairy milk, if desired.



  4. Variation: For Cinnamon-Apricot Oatmeal, replace raisins with 1/2 cup (180 grams) chopped dried apricots. Cook as directed.
