In a saucepan, combine rolled oats, shredded zucchini, plant-based milk, maple syrup or agave nectar (if using), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Cook Oatmeal:
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Simmer and Stir:
Once the oatmeal begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking, stirring frequently, for about 5-7 minutes or until the oats are tender and the mixture reaches your desired consistency.
Adjust Sweetness:
Taste the oatmeal and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more maple syrup or agave nectar.
Serve:
Remove the Vegan Zucchini Oatmeal from heat. Spoon it into bowls and top with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of plant-based yogurt.
