1 cup rolled oats

1 pinch salt

# Instructions:
01 -
In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats, milk or plant-based milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat while stirring occasionally.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together egg, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
03 -
Once the oats have absorbed most of the liquid, about 5 to 7 minutes, lower the heat. Gradually pour the egg mixture into the saucepan, stirring constantly to prevent the egg from scrambling.

Remove from heat and divide into bowls. Top with fresh berries, sliced bananas, and chopped nuts as desired. Serve immediately.
