Ingredients

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

1. 1In a medium saucepan, bring the 2 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat (100°C / 100°C).
2. 2Once boiling, add the 2 bags of rooibos tea to the water. Turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the tea steep for exactly 5 minutes.
3. 3Carefully remove and discard the 2 rooibos tea bags from the saucepan. Add the 1 cup of Gluten-Free Rolled Oats to the hot, tea-infused water.
4. 4Place the saucepan back on the stove over medium heat (176.7°C / 175°C). Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. The oats are ready when they have absorbed most of the liquid and have a creamy consistency.
5. 5Divide the cooked oats evenly between two serving bowls.
6. 6Top each bowl of oats with the 1/2 cup of fresh mixed berries and the 2 tablespoons of toasted coconut flakes.
7. 7If desired, drizzle the 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over the oats, berries, and coconut.
