Oatmeal with eggs and milk

Here’s a hearty and protein-packed way to enjoy oatmeal with eggs and milk — great for breakfast or post-workout fuel. You can make it sweet or savory, depending on your preference.

Creamy Oatmeal with Eggs and Milk (Sweet Version)

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

• 1 cup milk (any kind – dairy or plant-based)

• 1 egg

• 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)

• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

• Pinch of salt

• Toppings: fruit, nut butter, nuts, seeds, etc.

Instructions:

1. Whisk the egg in a small bowl until smooth.

2. Combine oats and milk in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

3. Stir in the egg slowly while stirring the oatmeal continuously. This will thicken the oatmeal and add protein without scrambling the egg.

4. Add cinnamon, sweetener, and a pinch of salt, if using. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes until thick and creamy.

5. Serve with your favorite toppings.

Savory Oatmeal with Eggs and Milk (Optional Fried or Poached Egg)

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup rolled oats

• 1 cup milk or half milk/half water

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 1 egg (fried, poached, or soft-boiled)

• Optional toppings: sautéed spinach, avocado, cheese, green onions, hot sauce

Instructions:

1. Cook oats in milk (or milk/water combo) with a pinch of salt until creamy, about 5–7 minutes.

2. Prepare the egg to your liking (fried, poached, or soft-boiled).

3. Top oatmeal with the egg and your choice of savory toppings.

4. Season with pepper, cheese, or hot sauce as desired.
