Ingredients

1 cup Rolled Oats
2-3 cups Water
1 - 1/2 cups Milk
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1-2 Cinnamon Sticks
1/4 tsp Nutmeg grated or ground
1/2 tsp Salt
Sweetened Condensed Milk or sugar, to sweeten, as desired

Instructions

In a large pot, bring 1 cup of water, 2 cups of milk, salt and cinnamon stick(s) to a boil. Then, using a blender, combine the rolled oats and 2 cups of water. Blend until you achieve a smooth or desired consistency.
Pour oats mixture into the simmering pot and whisk constantly to prevent sticking. Stir in the remaining milk (or water depending on preference), ground nutmeg and vanilla. Continue stirring to ensure the mixture is well combined.
Reduce the heat to low and let the porridge simmer, stirring occasionally and adding more liquid if needed. Continue simmering until it reaches your desired thickness and enjoy!
