If your consistency is watery its gruel meaning you have added too much water to begin with, one cup rolled oats to 1.5 cup of boiled water will hit the correct thickness and creaminess every time!
For me at least it was a combination of small packets (was pretty much my first time eating porridge - and that was just last year), so I don't waste a ton if I end up hating it, and the fact that it tells you exact quantities (oats + how much milk). There seemed to be so many different ways online, this was just a nice easy way to try it out.Maybe its just me, but i just do not get why people buy instant oats. Is the extra 30seconds required to make standard oats from a box that inconvenient?
Mornflake Superfast Oats are a source of wholegrain and protein. We carefully cut the oats into three before gently rolling them. The smaller oat flakes absorb the water or milk quicker, making them cook superfast, perfect for a smooth and creamy porridge
Oats and water and a pinch of salt.
