โ˜• Coffee Oatmeal

Coffee Oatmeal brings coffee into the kitchen as a real ingredient, not a garnish. This recipe belongs to the Coffee Breakfast & Brunch collection and uses strong brewed coffee to provides coffee flavor and cooking liquid. The goal is a balanced dish in which coffee supports the other ingredients while still contributing its own roasted character.

โ˜• The recommended starting point is a Medium Roast. Balanced coffee keeps breakfast flavors clear; medium-dark is reserved for chocolate-forward versions.
