How to Make Oatmeal Master Recipe With Variations
- In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats, 2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy), and 4 cups water.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, stir in 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, etc.), and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking and burning, until the oatmeal reaches your desired thickness and creaminess.
- Serve warm with additional milk or your favorite toppings. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated throughout the week.
- **Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Variation:**
- Substitute 2 medium Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, and chopped) for the dried fruit.
- Add 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon to the oatmeal while simmering. Add extra cinnamon to taste when serving.
- **Banana Nut Oatmeal Variation:**
- Substitute 1/2 cup pure maple syrup for the brown sugar.
- Substitute 2 ripe bananas (chopped) for the dried fruit. Consider adding 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans for extra flavor and texture.
