Oatmeal Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Oats

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water or milk to a boil. Add the rolled oats and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed the liquid.

  2. 2

    Add Sweeteners

    Once the oats are cooked, remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar and raisins. Allow the mixture to sit for a minute to let the flavors meld.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Spoon the oatmeal into bowls and serve warm. Optionally, add a side of seasonal fresh fruit like berries, banana slices, or apple wedges.
