Kitchen notes, swaps & the story
- Heat the Liquid Base: In a medium saucepan, add the coconut milk, maple syrup (or coconut nectar), ground turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger. Stir well to combine, then bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Cook the Oats: Add the rolled oats to the simmering mixture. Lower the heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reach your desired consistency.
- Incorporate Flaxseed: Stir in the ground flaxseed, and cook for another 1-2 minutes to thicken.
- Serve: Divide the oatmeal into bowls. For an added touch, top with fresh blueberries, raw walnuts, and unsweetened shredded coconut if desired.
- Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, spiced golden turmeric oatmeal!
