When you cook oats in the stove, you want to use the smallest pot possible for the amount of oats that you are cooking. So here I have one cup of quick oats, that's two servings and two cups of milk. You can also use water, but for a rich and creamy bowl oatmeal, I'm using milk, so I'm gonna add my oats into my pot, and immediately I'm also going to add the milk and a pinch of salt. Now the salt is optional, but I do feel like it brings out all the flavors and it makes your oatmeal taste so much better. Let's give this a quick stir while you bring the milk and oats to a simmer. That means when your milk is bubbly and moving around, you do wanna stand by the pot and give it a stir from time to time because milk is notorious for bubbling over. By the way, if you find tips like that one helpful, give this video a thumbs up. It lets me know to always add them in my videos for you. Now, once it's simmering, the quick oats only take about two to three minutes to cook. As the oatmeal cooks and your stirring, you'll notice that the mixture is thickening up, and after about three minutes, they're ready. But I like to put a lid on it and let them sit here with the fire turned off for about another minute, so they're really rich in thick. Check these out.
