Agave syrup is a natural sweetener.

Place a pot on the stove over high heat and add buttermilk.

Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla to the pot.

Stir in salt and coconut milk, then bring to a boil, watching to prevent it from overflowing.

While waiting for the milk to boil, add oats to a container and mix with water to ensure no lumps.

Once the milk is boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and add the oats to the pot.

Use a little water to rinse out the oats container and add that to the pot as well.

Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, but you can leave it to boil gradually checking on it.

After about 10 minutes, check the porridge; it should be thickening nicely.

Once thickened, reduce the heat to very low and add tin condensed milk to sweeten.

Mix in the condensed milk thoroughly and taste to adjust sweetness, adding more milk if necessary.

Add a bit more salt and vanilla to enhance the flavor, mixing well.

Serve the porridge as is or with bread or crackers.
