2:1 semi-skimmed milk to oats, cooked in a small saucepan on the hob (no microwaving !) without salt until the consistency of heavy duty wallpaper paste. Optional upgrade - add a large handful of raspberries at the beginning of cooking and these can be squashed to make it go pink before eating…
Yesterday I had to resort to golden syrup as we’d run out of maple. It’s much too “immediate hit” sweet, no depth, no mystery. I might try muscovado though.
I do mine with full fat milk in the microwave: 2 mins, stir, 1 min, stir, 1 min, stir, 30s, stir. Leave for a couple of minutes (while I finish making my coffee) to form a slightly dry top, then add maple syrup.
Eat the outer part first, going round. Neck a handful of pills, then eat the rest.
