Amazing Homemade Oatmeal on the Stovetop | Cooking Basics

Pour 1 cup of milk into a small pot.

Set the heat to medium and let the milk come to a boil (about 4-5 minutes).

Once the milk is boiling, add 1/2 cup of old-fashioned oats.

Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens up.

If you prefer thicker oatmeal, let it cook for an additional couple of minutes while stirring to prevent burning.

Add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to the thickened oatmeal.

Fold in 1/4 cup of blueberries and remove from heat.

Scoop the oatmeal into a serving bowl.
