Ingredients

1 cup oatmeal
2 cups water
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons hot cocoa mix
toppings of choice (banana slices, sunflower seed butter, chopped fruit, sunflower, pumpkin, or chia seeds)

Instructions

In a small saucepan, cook oatmeal and water together on medium heat until the oatmeal is boiling and bubbly (4 minutes). Stir and lower the heat to simmer.
1 cup oatmeal, 2 cups water
Add milk and egg, stir until the egg is mixed in and the oatmeal looks creamy and starts to bubble again. Add hot cocoa and stir until mixed throughly. Serve immediately and add desired toppings.
1/4 cup milk, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons hot cocoa mix

Notes

This recipe easily doubles to make four servings in a 2 quart pot (4 tablespoons of hot cocoa mix is equivalent to 1/4 cup). Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the microwave with a splash of milk to make the oatmeal creamy again.
