Do you prefer a sweet breakfast over a savory one? It is possible to enjoy a sweeter breakfast while still getting a nutritious and filling one. Turn your morning oatmeal into a sweet treat with this healthy take on a cinnamon roll. Oats offer lots of filling fiber to help keep you full and keep your heart healthy. Flavored with cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup, and a Greek yogurt "frosting," this cinnamon roll oatmeal is a winning breakfast that'll also satisfy your sweet tooth. Ingredients 2 cups + 1 tsp skim milk or milk of choice, divided 1 cup rolled oats 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp vanilla 1 tbsp + 1 tbsp pure maple syrup, divided 2 tbsp nonfat plain Greek yogurt Preparation In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups milk to a gentle boil. Stir in oats, turn heat to low, and cook until oats have absorbed liquid, about 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in cinnamon, vanilla, and 1 tbsp maple syrup. Divide oatmeal into two bowls. In a small bowl, stir together yogurt, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp milk. Drizzle over top of oatmeal. Serve immediately. Ingredient Variations and Substitutions You can use quick oats instead of rolled oats if desired. This will reduce your cooking time slightly. This recipe works well with any milk or milk substitute. Dairy and soy milk will provide the most protein, and unsweetened milk alternatives won't add sugar but sweetened plant milks may. Try adding other spices, like nutmeg or ginger, for variation. Honey will also work in place of maple syrup for a natural sweetener. Cooking and Serving Tips To prevent curdling or scorching, be careful not to heat milk over too high of heat. As soon as you add the oats, turn the heat to low to prevent boiling over.Serve oatmeal with a piece of fruit for a rounded-out breakfast. Rate this Recipe You've already rated this recipe.
