10 m

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups traditional rolled oats
  • 3 ½ cups reduced-fat milk

Method

Step 1

Combine oats and milk in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to the boil.

Step 2

Gently boil for 4-6 minutes, stirring often, until thick and creamy.

Tips

  • For creamier oats, soak oats and milk overnight in a large bowl or container in the fridge before cooking.
  • To cook in a microwave instead of on a stovetop, combine 1 cup of traditional rolled oats and 1½ cups of water or 1⅓ cups of reduced-fat milk to a microwave-safe bowl. Cook on high for 2½ minutes, then stir and cook for a further 2 minutes.
