This was soooo good! I followed another reviewer's advice and added the raisins with the water mixture. Perfect!

This sounded wonderful, but did not come out as well as I had expected. It is a decent starter recipe, but by just adding things to oatmeal as to your own taste turns out much better, for instance, you couldn't even taste the maple syrup in this recipe, it need sooo much more brown sugar, and a tad bit of salt. More cinnamon too. Just make oatmeal and add these things to your own taste. Thanks anyway.

A nice basic recipe, which you can "tinker" with and have a tasty, hot breakfast for your kids. I added a little salt, a teaspoon of butter, and I increased the cinnamon and syrup by a teaspoon. I also cooked the raisins with the syrup mixture, so that they would be nice and plump. My kids gobbled it down. Thank you for your recipe.

We tend to like our oatmeal chunky rather than watery or creamy. I used old fashioned steel cut oats, added a few more raisins, more cinnamon, more syrup and 1 t butter to each serving. Perfect! Thanks for the great breakfast idea Jenn.

Just add another tablespoon of brown sugar & maple syrup, a dollop of butter, and 1/4 tsp. of salt - served with a bit of milk on top. You've got a very hearty, tasty, and creamy serving of oatmeal!

What a nice change from plain old oatmeal! I did add about a 1/4 of a cup more oatmeal (I like mine thick) and I shredded the apple instead of chopping. I still served it with brown sugar and milk and it was delicious. My two year loved it and that says something.

Delicious! It is the maple syrup and cinnamon that make this recipe wonderful.

This recipe was horrible! It was not creamy at all. Probably because it was made with water. It was very bland and nasty. Would never make this recipe again.
