1
Prepare the Base
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water or milk to a boil over medium heat.
2
Add Base Ingredient
Once boiling, add 1 cup of oatmeal or grits and 1 tsp of salt. Stir well to prevent clumping.
3
Simmer
Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes for oatmeal or 10-15 minutes for grits, stirring occasionally until the desired consistency is reached.

4
Toast the Bread
While the oatmeal or grits are cooking, toast 2 slices of bread until golden brown.

5
Add Toppings
Once the oatmeal or grits are cooked, remove from heat and stir in 1 tbs of butter until melted.
6
Serve Hot
Spoon the creamy oatmeal or grits into bowls. Top with 2 tbs of brown sugar, 1 cup of milk, and optional toppings of raisins or pecans as desired.
7
Serve with Toast
Serve the oatmeal or grits alongside the toast for a complete meal.
