Directions
In a bowl, combine the oats, walnuts, brown sugar, flax seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Pour some boiling water over everything and give it a good stir until all the ingredients are nicely moistened. Let it sit for about two minutes so the oats can soften up. Once the oats have absorbed the water, gently fold in the blueberries. Give it one last stir and it’s ready to enjoy!
Serving Options
Serve warm with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness. You can also add a splash of milk or yogurt on top to make it creamier and more filling.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a little water or milk to loosen the texture if needed.
