Ingredients

  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 oz freeze-dried strawberries
  • 1 3/4 c water
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp seedless strawberry jam

Instructions

  • Add the water and butter to a small saucepan. Over medium heat, bring the water and butter to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in the oatmeal, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, chia seeds, sugar and salt.
  • Cook, stirring often, for 4 - 5 minutes, or until the liquid has been absorbed and the oatmeal is softened and thick.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla, 2 tablespoons of yogurt and 1 tablespoon of strawberry jam.
  • Spoon into serving bowls. Garnish each bowl with fresh chopped strawberries, more yogurt and strawberry jam. I like to microwave the jam to make it liquid and drizzle over the top. Serve immediately.
