A comforting bowl of creamy oatmeal, sweetened with rich brown sugar and studded with chewy raisins. The perfect warm and hearty start to any morning, ready in under 10 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, whole milk, and salt. Stir well to ensure everything is mixed.
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom.
As soon as it begins to boil, immediately reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring every minute or so, until the oatmeal is creamy and has thickened to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the packed brown sugar, raisins, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and optional ground nutmeg. Continue stirring until the brown sugar is completely dissolved.
Let the oatmeal stand for 2 minutes. This allows it to thicken further. Divide evenly among four bowls and serve warm.

Oats are rich in beta-glucan, a type of soluble fiber known to help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol, stabilize blood sugar levels, and promote a feeling of fullness, which can aid in weight management.
The complex carbohydrates in rolled oats are digested slowly, providing a steady and prolonged release of energy, preventing the energy spikes and crashes associated with sugary breakfast cereals.
Oats are a good source of essential vitamins and minerals, including manganese, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron, which are vital for bone health, energy production, and oxygen transport in the body.
Yes, in moderation. Rolled oats are a fantastic source of heart-healthy soluble fiber and complex carbohydrates for sustained energy. However, this recipe contains added sugar from the brown sugar and raisins, so it's best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. You can reduce the sugar to make it even healthier.

Absolutely. Simply replace the whole milk with your favorite plant-based milk, such as almond, soy, or oat milk, in a 1:1 ratio. The recipe will be just as creamy and delicious.
You can, but you'll need to adjust the liquid ratio and cooking time. Steel-cut oats require more liquid (about 1 cup oats to 4 cups liquid) and a longer cooking time (20-30 minutes). Instant oats cook very quickly (1-2 minutes) and need less liquid (about 1 cup oats to 1.5 cups liquid).
Gummy oatmeal is often caused by over-stirring, which releases too much starch. Stir only occasionally while simmering to prevent sticking. Also, be careful not to overcook it; the oatmeal will continue to thicken as it rests off the heat.
