What makes oatmeal so healthy?

Porridge or oatmeal is extremely healthy. For those who don’t know yet: Oatmeal simply consists of oat flakes cooked with a liquid such as milk or water, or both. Oat flakes are very healthy because they have a very high fibre content. So they are very nutritious. You can spend the whole morning without cravings. They also contain many vitamins and minerals such as B vitamins, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc.

In the past, I didn’t like porridge or oatmeal even though they are super healthy. I found it too boring, it was just a weird mixture with no taste. If you had or have the same opinion about oatmeal, try this recipe and it will change your mind! Oatmeal really is a great basis for a healthy breakfast. You can also vary the taste slightly by adding different fruits and toppings. Today, oatmeal has become one of my favourite breakfasts!

Basic recipe for a quick porridge

The basic recipe for quick porridge is very simple: just maintain the 1:2 ratio, i.e. one serving of oatmeal for every two servings of liquid. This basic recipe can easily be made vegan by replacing the milk with vegetable milk. Almond or oat milk will work well with this recipe. It is also possible to use only two servings of milk without water. In short, there are many possible variations!

Basic recipe

  • 1 glass of oats
  • 1 glass of milk (vegan or not)
  • 1 glass of water
  • 1/2 mashed banana
  • 1 tbsp. agave syrup or honey

Put all the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl and cook at 800 Watt for 2 to 2.5 minutes. Leave to cool slightly before adding the fruit for decoration.
