If the dates are dry, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes, then drain. If they're soft, you can use them right away. Blend or mash the dates with a fork to form a sticky paste.
Combine the Ingredients:
In a small bowl, mix the mashed dates with rolled oats, almond milk, chia seeds (if using), cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.
Heat:
Place the mixture in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until the oats are soft and the mixture is warm.
Serve:
Stir again and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with more cinnamon or some chopped nuts for extra texture.
