Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
2 cups water or unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup fresh blueberries washed
1/4 cup walnuts chopped, toasted if desired
1 teaspoon ground flaxseed optional
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon ground

Instructions

Combine the rolled oats and water in a small pot and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat, then stir in the blueberries, walnuts, ground flaxseed (if using), and cinnamon.
Divide the oatmeal between two bowls and serve warm.

Notes

Caregiver tip: Prepare ingredients ahead to save time and encourage a calm mealtime routine. This oatmeal provides fiber, antioxidants, and healthy fats from walnuts, supporting brain health gently and deliciously.
