👨‍🍳 作り方

1
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
2
Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oats have softened and the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
3
Stir in the peanut butter, sugar, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla extract (if using). Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and the sugar has dissolved.
4
Taste and adjust sweetness or spices as needed.
5
Ladle the oatmeal into serving bowls. Garnish with chopped roasted peanuts before serving.
