Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 cup milk or water
- 1/4 cup egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Oats: In a small pot, combine the rolled oats, salt, and milk or water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
- Cook the Oats: Reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer, stirring occasionally, until they become creamy and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
- Add Egg Whites: Slowly pour in the egg whites while continuously stirring to avoid curdling and ensure a smooth texture. Continue stirring for another 1-2 minutes until the egg whites are fully cooked and incorporated.
- Season and Sweeten: Stir in the cinnamon and honey if using, blending them thoroughly into the oatmeal for added flavor and sweetness.
- Serve: Remove from heat and serve warm immediately.
Notes
- Use pasteurized egg whites for safety and convenience.
- Adjust the amount of milk or water to achieve your preferred oatmeal consistency.
- Cinnamon and honey are optional but add warmth and sweetness naturally.
- For a dairy-free version, use water or plant-based milk.
- Stir continuously when adding egg whites to create a fluffy texture without scrambling them.
