Yum...this was so good. A very hearty breakfast. I followed the recipe exactly and also added the optional raisins. The walnuts made it extra delicious. My three year old loved it! What a wonderful breakfast on a cold morning! I would love to try making it with water to see if it would still turn out as good.

The taste was fine. My husband said "not bad," too mushy for me and my daughter. I didn't used the apple, raisins and honey and I used Smart Balance instead of butter and brown sugar blend instead of real brown sugar. I will only make it again if my husband asks for it, otherwise I will have to get up earlier and make it the old fashioned way.

I didn't particularly care for this. I found it too mushy - both oats and apples - and sweet. I usually make steel-cut oats, so perhaps part of my the problem is the difference in flavor. I did eat it, but don't anticipate making it again. The other eater also reported that it was on the mushy side, but did not think it was too sweet. (We went 2.5 and 3.5 stars respectively, so I averaged.) My only substitution was due to an allergy I used soy milk instead of regular milk. I opted not to include the raisins.

<p>I am an estate planning and asset protection attorney. I have one daughter, Jacqueline, who was born 6/26/2007. </p>
<p>Since I cannot afford to eat at upscale restaurants every night of the week, I cook to meet my high standards for variety, quality, and creativity in my meals. Recipezaar has made it so incredibly easy to meet these goals!!! <br /><br />I am totally obsessed with cooking, and I couldn't stop if I wanted to. It is as natural to me as breathing. I can remember looking through my mother's cookbooks as soon as I could read. While I mostly prefer modern recipes, I do have some old time favorites. I use the same Betty Crocker cookbook my mother uses. It is the 2nd Edition Betty Crocker cookbook reprinted in 1956. I found it at a used book store. I also use a Pillbury cookbook, a Fanny Farmer cookbook, The New Basics Cookbook and Great Good Food (both by Julee Ross). I also find good recipes in Cooking Light and Southern Living magazines. <br /><br />While I have discovered and love Paula Deen, my cooking is taking a new direction. I am trying to eat more monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), less saturated fats, more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fiber, and more omega 3s, i.e., basically the Mediterranean diet. I am doing it not only to maintain a healthy weight, but also for my long term health. I am not saying goodbye to all the luscious things I used to eat, I am just changing how much of those I eat. <br /><br />I am probably somewhat demanding in my reviews. If the recipe is not a WOW meal, I probably won't give it a 5 star rating. With so many recipes on 'Zaar, there is no reason to settle for less than 5 stars every night of the week! <br /><br />I have recenlty become interested in foodie fiction, since I am a foodie! Someday I will write a book that involves cooking. I am not sure if I should write a fiction book or non fiction, but I know that I love to read anything that involves cooking. <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
