Notes

  • Dates not only add natural sweetness but also enhance the oatmeal’s colour and flavour.
  • Feel free to include any nuts or seeds you love for added crunch and nutrition.
  • If you prefer a more natural sweetener, skip the sugar and drizzle some honey on top when serving.
  • Always eat seasonal fruits to get more nutrients.
  • When kept for long, the oatmeal becomes thick. Add a little milk while reheating to get the desired consistency.
