Oatmeal

My favorite oatmeal is maple and brown sugar. However, we don't generally buy it,  but we have lots of plain oats. So I eventually came up with my own way to make it. I must say, it's not half bad!

Ingredients
1 3/4 cup water
1 cup quick oats
1/4 cup brown sugar (not packed)
1/8 tsp mapleine (like in homemade syrup)



If it's not seasoned enough for you, you can easily add more. I add all the seasoning after the oats are cooked according to the directions. These rations are for 2 servings (per the label on the oatmeal). Joseph really likes it. He puts raisins in his.

Great idea! We love oatmeal, and I'm sure buyig it this way is a lot cheaper than buying the individual packets of seasoned oatmeal.
