My Go-To Oat Bran

• oat bran1 cup
• water↗1.75 cup
• whole milk (or milk of choice)↗1 cup
• pinch of salt
• eggs or 3 egg whites, beaten↗2
• maple syrup↗2 tablespoon

  more to taste

• butter for serving↗
• fruit for topping (I like raspberries)

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Simmer: In a small saucepan, simmer the oat bran, water, milk, and salt. Cook until thickened, 2-3 minutes.

2. 2

   Add eggs: Pour the eggs in and stir continuously over low heat until incorporated (if it’s too hot, the eggs will scramble, so make sure to stir vigorously and continuously to work them in gradually). I usually do this for 1-3 minutes until I feel that they’ve been heated enough to be cooked. You can use a whisk or a wooden spoon.

3. 3

   You’re Done! Yum! Stir in maple syrup and more water or milk if needed. Serve with butter on top, raspberries, and a drizzle of maple syrup if you want!
