How to make Creamy Chocolate Lovers Oatmeal

Tips from the cook

  • Watch the pan as it comes to the boil, so the oats do not catch on the bottom.
  • Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until thick and creamy.
  • Top with berries, coconut, nut butter or extra seeds.
  • Add a splash of milk if it gets too thick.
