Ingredients
  

For the Oatmeal Mixture
  • 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats Avoid instant or steel-cut oats for best results.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Adjust according to your taste preference.
  • 2 large Eggs Can be swapped with flax eggs for a vegan option.
  • 1 cup Milk (any type) Plant-based milk is a great substitute for a dairy-free version.
For the Sweetness

  • 1/4 cup Maple syrup Optional; honey or agave syrup can be used as alternatives.
  • 2 tablespoons Coarse sugar Optional; can be omitted if avoiding added sugars.
