Today we're making a healthy English breakfast that's become popular here in recent years, with oats as the main ingredient. This recipe gives a flavor similar to rice pudding by infusing the milk with lemon peel and cinnamon. I used oat milk, but you can use soy, almond, regular milk, or whichever you prefer. Let's get started.

Steps

1

In a saucepan, heat the lemon peel with the cinnamon stick in the oat milk.
2

Before it comes to a boil, add the rolled oats and vanilla extract. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes. When it starts to thicken, add the brown sugar. I use just one teaspoon, but you can add more to taste.
3

Stir and cook for 2 more minutes. Adjust the cooking time if you prefer a thicker porridge, but keep in mind that it will thicken more as it sits. If you’re not eating it right away, the oats will continue to absorb liquid.
4

Remove from heat and let cool. You can enjoy it warm, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to eat the next day.
5

Serve with raisins, chopped almonds, ground cinnamon, and your favorite fruit. Enjoy!
