- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Instructions:
Prepare the Oats:

Add Flavors:
- Once the mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and add the cinnamon and vanilla extract.

Cook the Porridge:
- Continue to cook the oats on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Sweeten (Optional):
- If you like your porridge sweet, stir in the honey or maple syrup at this stage.
Add Berries:
