A delightful twist on a classic oatmeal breakfast, featuring a creamy texture and a perfectly poached egg.
Combine the rolled oatmeal, water, and milk in a microwave-safe bowl.
Use a bowl large enough to prevent overflow during cooking.
Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute, then stir to combine.
Stirring ensures even cooking and prevents clumps.
Create a small well in the center of the oatmeal and crack the egg into it.
Make sure the egg is centered for even cooking.
Microwave on high for another minute or until the egg white is set and the yolk is cooked to your liking.
Adjust the cooking time based on your microwave's power and your preferred yolk consistency.
Top with butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
You can also add a dash of hot sauce for a spicy kick.
Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy oatmeal with poached egg.
Garnish with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added flavor.
