Salted Caramel Oatmeal

Rich and creamy, this salted caramel oatmeal is the perfect combination of salty and sweet, and is a quick and easy healthy breakfast for weekday mornings!

Oatmeal is one of my go-to breakfasts because it’s so simple to make, and it’s a high-fibre meal that will keep you fuelled and full for hours to come. Not to mention, once you’ve got the basics down there are so many different variations that can you can create, from apple cinnamon to chocolate banana, and this salted caramel oatmeal is just another delicious flavour you can add to the list! Although it sounds ultra-indulgent, this recipe is actually made completely of real food and helps to add some healthy fats and natural sweetness to the oatmeal. The simple combination of tahini and maple syrup, along with a pinch of sea salt, helps to create an oogey and gooey no-cook caramel sauce that takes a humble bowl of oatmeal to the next level.

This salted caramel oatmeal recipe calls for whole milk, however, you could easily swap it for almond milk or coconut milk if you wanted to make it dairy-free.
