Cinnamon, Brown Sugar, and Raisin Oatmeal

Submitted by Varner Family

"My kids refused to eat my favorite kind of oatmeal. Who doesn't like oatmeal? Eventually, I figured out that they did not like the texture of quick cooking oats found in those convenient packets. I concocted my own recipe using old fashioned oats and they loved it! They ask for it nearly every morning 6 months later! Enjoy :)"
