Equipment

Air Fryer
8-inch baking pan

Ingredients

1 ½ cups Rolled oats
1 ½ cups milk
1 ½ cups water
⅛ teaspoon salt

Addins

Brown sugar as needed
ground cinnamon as needed

Instructions

👩‍🍳 IMPORTANT TIP: Stick to the recommended pan size and ingredient measurements—changing them could cause the oatmeal to overflow or the liquid to evaporate too quickly, leaving you with a dry, less creamy texture.
Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with non-stick spray. (Refer to notes for instructions to cook one cup of oats)
Add oats, milk, water and salt into the pan and give a stir. Transfer the pan into the air fryer and cook at 300°F for 15 minutes. No need to stir!
When done, carefully remove the hot pan using kitchen towels or oven mitts, and place on a wire rack.
Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon as needed, cover the pan with a plate and let rest for 5 minutes. This helps the oats to soften further and thicken.
Top with fresh fruits and chopped nuts. Serve!

Notes

Use rolled or old fashioned oats.

Don’t forget salt! A pinch of salt enhances the flavor without making it bland.

I used Instant Vortex 6 quart air fryer for this recipe.

8-inch baking pan is perfect for cooking 1 ½ cups of oats.

To cook 1 cup of oats: Use a 6-inch baking pan - Add 1 cup oats, ¾ cup milk and ¾ cup water. Cooking time and temperature remains the same.
