Ingredients

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup water
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese
• 2 teaspoons powdered sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 1 teaspoon butter (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, water, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir to mix evenly.

Step 2

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes or until the oats have softened and reached your desired consistency.

Step 3

While the oatmeal cooks, prepare the cream cheese topping. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften the cream cheese further, then stir until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Once the oatmeal is cooked, remove it from the heat and stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Adjust sweetness if desired.

Step 5

Divide the oatmeal into two serving bowls. Drizzle the cream cheese mixture over the top of each bowl, swirling it lightly into the oatmeal for a marbled effect.

Step 6

If desired, sprinkle the chopped pecans or walnuts on top and add a small pat of butter for extra richness.

Step 7

Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, cinnamon-spiced oatmeal!
