Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal – Quick and easy steel cut oatmeal topped with roasted strawberries! A healthy and delicious breakfast!
Strawberries and Cream Oatmeal
Every morning, I eat oatmeal. I know, not the most exciting breakfast, but it’s at least kinda healthy. I use an oatmeal packet, add some plain oatmeal, and some almond milk, tossing some blueberries on top. Today, I mixed it up and decided to try making one of my favorites, strawberries and cream oatmeal myself. It was originally going to be a slow cooker oatmeal but I switched it up to be a stove-top recipe as I didn’t want to wait all day for it to be done 🙂
Roasting the strawberries let all of their juices out and gave them such a lovely flavor! It was such an incredible topping along with some chopped pecans for an extra crunch! I want to try doing it with some other fruits like peaches and blueberries so I can do other cream oatmeals! So long oatmeal packets!

Notes on strawberries and cream oatmeal recipe
- Want to make this recipe in your slow cooker? Double the recipe and slow cook the oats, milk, vanilla, and maple syrup on high for 2-3 hours!
- When reheating, add a bit of milk to it! The oatmeal heats up much better that way!
- While the oatmeal is cooking, give it a stir every once in a while to help make sure none is getting stuck to the bottom of the pan!

April 21, 2017 at 12:38 amWhat a great idea to roast the strawberries on their own as opposed to cooking them with the oats! I’m sure it gives them a totally different flavor complex.
