How do you make Savory Oatmeal

Making this oatmeal is very easy. I cook it on the stovetop.

For this savory oatmeal recipe, you need the following ingredients:

Use bone broth to cook the oatmeal for a rich and nourishing oatmeal

The most important step in making a delicious and tasty savory oatmeal is to use a good quality bone broth.

I often make this oatmeal for breakfast using a bone broth that I simmer overnight. Before bed, I'll set the stock pot out to simmer the bones. In the morning, I scoop the broth directly into a smaller pot to cook the oatmeal.

If you are keen to make your own bone broth, I'm partial to thisbone broth recipebecause the imagery in the recipe can't be beat.

We like to boil the chicken carcass for up to 12 hours until the bones begin to crumble and keep beef bones going for 24 hours until they look as if they were washed up on a beach.

This breakfast is so much a staple in our household that I regularly make bone broth and freeze the brothin individual portions. I've found that the best way is to use this silicon baby food tray. Once the broth is frozen, I pop them out and store it in a ziplock bag in the freezer.

In the mornings, Isimply defrost aportion of the bone broth directly in the pot while I cook oatmeal. Breakfast is served up in 10 minutes.

Save time making this savory oatmeal by using a quality store-bought bone broth

As much as I love always having a bone broth in the fridge or freezer, it's not always the case in this busy household. That's why we always keep a stock of store-bought bone broth in the pantry.

I love the convenience of Kettle & Fire Bone Broths.

This Chicken and Mushroom Bone Broth will give you a rich and flavorful savory oatmeal.

This is a delicious savory oatmeal made with bone broth. If you're looking for what to do with bone broth, don't skip over this recipe!

This Savory Oatmeal is hearty and filling, it works as a delicious dinner

While I love savory oatmeal for breakfast, it makes a fabulous dinner too. It's hearty and filling enough that it'll keep you full in the evening.

When serving it for dinner, I often serve it with something else in addition. ThisMiso Maple Eggplant would go perfectly as a side dish. A bacon and kale salad would also complement this savory oatmeal.

    Savoury oatmeal is so rarely eaten but why it’s just soooo good and so is this recipe. Idea add some goat cheese and let it melt into it, so creamy and adds a bit of salt.
