Easy to make Requires only few ingredients Super creamy and hearty, but not high in fat Gluten-free Suitable on low glycemic diet Vegan Candida diet friendly Nut-free and peanut-free Blood sugar stabilizing Tips: Feel free to substitute some (or all) of the oat bran with regular rolled oats if you’re not following low glycemic diet. Plant-based milk can be used instead of water. Opt for additive-free organic varieties. Particularly look for added salt, sugar and oils. Finally, try also blueberries and raspberries instead of sour cherries. More tips in original post!"

Turn off the heat and stir in Himalayan salt, flax seeds, cinnamon and stevia. Taste and adjust if necessary.
