Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats (gluten free if needed)
  • cups your favourite plant milk (I like almond, soy, oat or coconut milk)
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon powdered ginger
  • Pinch black pepper
  • Maple syrup, date paste or brown sugar to taste

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients except sweetener to a pan and gently bring mixture to a boil.
  • Reduce heat until just simmering, and continue to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently until mixture has thickened.
  • Add your favourite sweetener to taste, and pour oatmeal into a bowl.
  • Add your favourite toppings (I like berries, mango and seeds) and enjoy!

Notes

Milk - I like to use soy milk for extra protein but all kinds work really well, whether they're dairy free or regular.
Black pepper - Used to help with turmeric absorption.
Add protein - I love to add a small scoop of protein powder to make this oatmeal extra filling.
Store any uneaten turmeric oatmeal in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply microwave or place in a saucepan on the stove until hot.
