How to Make Old Fashioned Porridge
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt.
- Reduce heat to medium-high and add 1 cup of rolled oats. Stir well.
- Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed some of the water and thickened slightly.
- Transfer the cooked oatmeal to a 6-cup soufflé dish.
- Add 1/2 cup brown sugar (instead of 1 cup as in original recipe), 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. (Adjust sweetness to your preference)
- Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the porridge is set and lightly browned on top.
- Let cool slightly before spooning into bowls.
- Serve warm with a dollop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
