Notes
*Oat milk makes it creamier than if you use water, but to save calories you can use water instead, or half and half!
**I didn't use agave in my oatmeal as the fruit makes the oatmeal sweeter, but if you find your matcha to be a bit too bitter you can always use a tad agave to balance out the bitterness!
***You can also cook this oatmeal on the stove but that takes a bit more time and I don't usually have the patience for that in the morning if I'm honest haha. I am definitely not a morning person so I usually cook my oatmeal in the microwave. :)
