What did you eat today?

They have a very different texture as they are less processed, and are just plain yummy That 90-minute thing sounds bogus, I cook mine for about 30 minutes and that works fine. I will cook 3-4 servings at the same time, this is the only oatmeal I am aware of that reheats well.

The trick is to stir them a lot to keep the oats from sticking to your pan overly much. I add the oats to boiling water, let them boil for a couple of minutes until they start to thicken, then turn down to a simmer - stirring frequently - until they are to the consistency that I like. For 4 servings this is about 25-30 minutes, if I am making less it might not take that long. At some point in the cooking process I will add frozen blueberries or chopped walnuts, both, or other things. I also like to mix a little peanut butter in it afterwards with a smidgen of milk. Yummers!

This works for me, I think there are some here that use an overnight crock-pot method but I can't seem to find it.

thank you!!! I'm going to try them this week.

thank you!!! I'm going to try them this week.

Let me know how you like them! It took me a few tries to figure out how I like them - both in consistency and what to add to them. They are wonderful before a long bike ride, or a very cold walk from the parking garage to the office on a bitter cold morning...
