Instructions

  • In a medium-sized pot, bring oats and water to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Add cinnamon, turmeric, and a few grinds of black pepper. See package directions for cook time.
  • When oats finish cooking, stir in peanut butter, flaxseed meal, and blueberries (cook a few minutes longer if frozen so oats don't get cold) then turn off heat. Taste, adding anything more it may need
