Just what I was craving! I love that this recipe calls for cooking the oats in milk and water. I never thought to try that before. I usually just go with one or the other. I used half the amount of butter and half the amount of sugar called for and added a few raisins. It turned out perfect for us. Thanks for sharing the yummy recipe!

This was a very good oatmeal ~ all 5 of my lil' kiddos ate it up!! I tripled the recipe and thought it looked like a LOT of spice, so I may cut that down a bit next time. Although I like another comment that said she might cook her apples with the spices next time - good idea! I also cooked mine a bit longer than 5 minutes, just to get a preferred consistency.<br/><br/>All in all, a very good recipe, which is easily adjusted for your own family's tastes!

A delicious way to begin the morning! I made as directed, using real butter, Organic Skim milk, Old Fashioned Oats and a touch more water to cook the oats. I cooked a bit longer than the 5 minutes to bring the oatmeal to the consistency I prefer. I thought I would use all brown sugar, but decided to use both the white and brown which turned out to be wonderful. I loved the addition of the nutmeg. Thank you, nickfo.
