To prepare, empty one packet into a bowl. Add about 2/3 cup of boiling water or hot milk. Stir well and let it stand for one to two minutes, or until the oats are tender and the liquid is absorbed. You can adjust the amount of liquid to achieve your desired consistency. For a richer flavor, use milk instead of water. Some people like to add fresh fruit or nuts for extra texture and taste.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike steel-cut oats, which require longer cooking times, this instant variety is processed to cook very quickly. The pre-mixed sweeteners provide a consistent flavor in every serving, differing from plain oats where sweetness is added by the cook.
