Maple Oatmeal with Sweet Corn is quick and healthy breakfast topped with berries and nuts!
We all want to get maximum benefits from our morning meal. Oatmeal is a perfect base for numerous ideas and this is one of the most delightful ones, especially when you sweeten the dish with pure maple syrup.
Why is it so healthy to eat oatmeal for breakfast? First of all, it is highly nutritious, loaded with carbs, fiber, vital vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant plant compounds (Gee! What a list!). Secondly, if you hate oats you just don’t know how to cook it!
Sweet corn is another energy enhancer that supports your body in many ways. Add to these ingredients nuts and berries and the super morning meal is ready!
We hope you are convinced and can’t wait to start cooking Maple Oatmeal with Sweet Corn!
To begin with, gather the following ingredients:
- unsalted butter – 1 tablespoon
- fresh corn kernels – 2 cups
- Viking Farms Maple Syrup – 2 tablespoons
- rolled oats – 2 cups
- salt – 1 teaspoon
- water – 3 cups
- whole milk – 1 cup
- ground nutmeg – 1/8 teaspoon
- blueberries – 1 cup
- walnuts – 1 cup
When all ingredients are ready take a saucepan and melt butter over medium. Add corn and syrup to the butter and cook 3-4 minutes. Then add in oats and salt, stir well and cook for a couple of minutes. The next step is to pour water, milk, and add nutmeg. Cover our Maple Oatmeal and simmer 5-7 minutes. After the porridge is ready let it stand covered for 2 more minutes.
Divide oatmeal among 4 bowls. Top each serving evenly with berries and nuts. Bon appetite!
Of course, many of the ingredients in this recipe are optional. You can remove sweet corn, use pecan with bananas instead of berries and walnuts… But what can not be changed is the union of oatmeal and pure maple syrup.
