Sharing my favorite Oatmeal Breakfast today! Teaching you How to Make Oatmeal with my Banana Coconut Caramel Walnut Oatmeal!
How To Make Oatmeal-Rolled Oats
- Stovetop: For four servings, in a medium saucepan bring 3-1/4 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to boiling. Stir in 2 cups rolled oats (old-fashioned). Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the heat. If desired, cover and let stand for 2 minutes before serving. This allows the oats to absorb any remaining liquid. For creamier oatmeal, add the oats to the pan along with the water and salt.
How To Make Oatmeal-Quick Oats
- Stovetop: For four servings, in a medium saucepan bring 3-1/2 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to boiling. Stir in 2 cups quick-cooking oats. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the heat. If desired, cover and let stand about 30 seconds before serving. This allows the oats to absorb any remaining liquid. For creamier oatmeal, add the oats to the pan along with the water and salt.

Types Of Oats
- Rolled oats: Also called old-fashioned oats, rolled oats are flattened with large rollers into flakes. They take about 5 minutes to cook on the stovetop.
- Quick-cooking rolled oats: These oats are cut into pieces and rolled thinner so they cook in about 1 minute on the stovetop.
- Steel-cut oats: Are cut into several pieces and steamed but not rolled. They offer a chewier consistency. They take about 25 minutes to cook on the stovetop, or they can be cooked in a slow cooker.
