How To Cook The Best Oatmeal Ever Using Milk!
Using milk to cook oatmeal is probably not as common as cooking oatmeal with water, but it sure is a tasty alternative. I normally cook oatmeal with water as it is my preference, but I did get a lot of questions regarding the use of milk to cook oatmeal with, that's why I decided to make this video. For those of you who have questions about how to cooking oatmeal with milk, my hope is that this video will answer those questions.
Basically, how to cook oatmeal with milk is pretty much the same way as how to cook oatmeal with water with one critical difference: the way you must keep mixing the oatmeal as you cook it with milk as not to burn the base of the pot and in turn give the oatmeal a burnt taste. Cooking oatmeal with milk does give the oatmeal a different taste and a different texture. None the less, cooking oatmeal with milk is a nice healthy alternative to have for breakfast.
Ingredients:
Quaker Old Fashion Oatmeal: 3/4 cup.
Milk: 1 1/2 cup of milk (you can use whole milk or fat free milk)
(Optional) Cinnamon, raisins, etc.
As with water, when cooking oatmeal with milk, add the milk to a medium size pot and let it boil on high heat. When milk is boiling, add the oatmeal, stir it, and lower the heat to medium. Continue to stir the oatmeal until the desired consistency or when you can see a good portion of the bottom of the pot. Put it in a bowl and you are ready to enjoy the best oatmeal ever! At this point, it is your option to add whatever toppings you like to enjoy with your oatmeal. I added cinnamon and raisins which I find adds a nice balance to the oatmeal cooked with milk.
My hope is that this video is helpful for those of you who have questions about cooking oatmeal with milk, and if not please ask me in the comments below.

Hahahhah
Lol

Love it, but my mom would smack me if she ever heard me scrape the pot with a spoon
Lol... yes... the only thing that video says is my inexperience. Just so you know, I don’t use the metal spoon anymore. Wooden spoons all the way... 😊
That’s cause your mom has non stick pans
Lmfaoooo💀💀🤣
Bro, from someone whose cooking skills are just about boiling an egg i thank you so much, i didn't believe i could do something that was tasty hehe.
+Dante Eldante thank you very much! That was my goal to help people cook something nice and simple, so I appreciate very much your comment.
Wait you know how to boil an egg??? Im too afraid to boil anything except macaroni noodles
@@kittymeowmeow1213 haha sure, its tricky but you can get there.
@@kittymeowmeow1213 🤣🤣
@@kittymeowmeow1213 yes u can
Dude! I followed your recipe to the "T" I substituted the whole milk for "vanilla silk almond milk" omfg! It's delicious! I splashed it with a little brown sugar and blueberries. It's amazing.
+SanJuanCreole that's awesome! Thanks for the feed back!
SanJuanCreol
ur a saviour 😭 i only know how to cook instant ramen so buying this at first was a hard decision. thankfully i found ur video 😭
Awe man! That is really awesome to hear! I’m glad I could help!
I'm here because I heard oatmeal is good to eat before taking a test... It's finals week!
how did it go lol did it work
@@jumpmanamoney3088 I love replying 2 years later too, can we be friends?
I hope it’s not your English finals, cuz yikes
JUMPMANAMONEY i don’t remember but it was my junior year & that year was my best year so i’m pretty sure i did good
It's definitely healthy but carbs can make you sleepy. I think protein would be a better choice before a test. Or at least make it a smaller bowl of oatmeal.
What I do is cook it with water and when the water evaporates I put it it in the bowl and add milk and it tastes amazing 😉
Your way sounds easier, nothing worse than scorched milk.
Add butter & brown sugar or almond milk and chopped apples. I'm gonna try it your way with the whole milk, cinnamon and raisins.
All smiles here. Thank you Paulo. This video might just save my life. Eating this every day. And it’s tastes really good.
Thank you so much for your comment! I’m glad I could help.
For someone from a very different culture, this video is very helpful)
Awesome, dude! I always wondered if I was cooking my oatmeal right. I will be adding the raisins next time.
Perfect! Thank you for your comment! Glad I could help!
This was my first time making old fashioned oats and before i watched this video i had no idea what i was doing wrong because the milk kept over flowing! THANK YOU !
+Bre W thank you! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for making this video man, I wanted to cook oatmeal with milk but I thought I was going to burn the milk
I just made some oats with almond milk, dried cranberries and a banana
+PhantomTeamaker Thank you for your comment! That's the reason why I made the video, to help those who had questions and I definitely appreciate the feed back. Let me know how you like it!
you should use a wood spoon instead of metal one in your pan. scrapes it up too much
To make long story short, I use a metal spoon because it is the same spoon I eat the oatmeal that way I don't dirty unnecessary dishes! Lol! It's a man thing I guess! But you are definitely correct, you should use a wooden spoon.
This is sooooo good!!
Team milk
i absolutely love mixing oats with fresh prunes. it taste absolutely wonderful.
Fresh prunes!? I never tried it, but I'll have to try that sometime!
Yes you will love it! It adds a distinct sweetness to it! Chop it into pieces and throw it in halfway while cooking the oats..yummy!
Hello Paulo, I must say I looked all around and your video was indeed the best. Wanted to try to make oatmeal for the first time and your video was spot on. Thank you for the instructions.
That’s really good to hear. I tried to make it simple and to my taste hoping others would like it too! I’m happy you are one of those that liked it!
thank you, easiest and tastiest breakfast ever!
+Cindy H you're welcome and thank you so much for your nice comment!
+mountian wolf it has helped me loose weight. Like everything else though you must eat in moderation for best results. Thank you for the question.

+ATARi thank you very much!
l will eat this every morning from now on it tastes so good!
Wow! Thank you! What a great compliment!
One half whole milk, one half water still gives enough milk taste and goo texture. Cheaper and less likely to overflow. Some milk is definitely needed, or it tastes like hospital food. To avoid washing too many dishes, I cook at least two cups of oat flakes and eat cold leftovers. No need to measure in quarters.
All kinds of porridge are improved with milk and butter. : )
I like it! For the most part butter makes everything taste better! I cooked it plain and it’s the way I like it. But from there you can add your heart desire! Thank you for the tips though, they’re much appreciated!
I always use half water and half milk. Perfect taste and texture
I never tried it that way but I would be interested to taste the difference. Thank you for the comment!
Looks tasty, yummy!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks man I prefer using milk thanks for this recipe
Thank you for watching!!
Does this video explain your pfp?
u're pretty cool replying all the comments; i'm going to cook this now
Thank you! I try to help out as much as I can! Please let me know how you like it.
Looks delicious!
Thank you so much!
we have a quaker oats but i dont know how to cook it,but i learn it here with your video its so simple
+Macky Petrola thank you! I'm glad I could help.
Thanks for the video, I'm going to definitely try this tomorrow. I normally boil the milk in a glass bottle then I pour it in a bowl of oatmeal. I do it that way because I always ended up burning the milk. I also soak them in milk and greek yogurt overnight, you guys should definitely give that a try. It's more like a desert than breakfast but healthy at the same time.
+kosexpress Thank you! Let me know how it turned out for you!
It actually turned out really good, thanks bro. I'm now soaking one packet of the unflavored oatmeal with milk, plain Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of wheat germ, 2 tablespoons flaxseed, one tablespoon of honey and a pinch of cinnamon overnight. It tastes more like a desert than breakfast to me. You should definitely give it a try.
kosexpress Thank you for that! I think that is a great idea! I started to cook oatmeal because I was told that it was good for my health and that's why I've kept it simple. However what you say you do with it sounds really tasty and perhaps that would be a great video you could do. And if you do... please let me know, I would love to check it out!

I combine about the same amount of oatmeal and milk in a microwavable bowl and MICROWAVE it on high for 3 min 45 sec. The result is perfect. No worry about the milk overflowing.
Good tip!
Thank you!

Well he is using his favorite pot after all
What a great video
thank u so much for this I've always wanted to learn how to make oatmeal cause my mom always made it for me so this vid helped a lot thank you!
Thank you for watching and for the support! I really appreciate it. I’m glad I could help!
if u guys dont have time for that ... just put the oatmeal and water and put it in the microwave for 1.5min its faster and better for me !!!
+WorldFuckStar lol... yea that too! It just doesn't taste as good though, but can certainly do that!
I boil my oatmeal in water. Evaporate the remaining water by placing the a lid on the pot, then I put evaporated milk in it
I like that way of cooking it. I’ll have to try it!

No wonder why mine is always a fail. Because I only add the boiling milk to the oat without cooking the oat with it xd
tiara izu rip :P
Thanks for the feedback Tiara! I'm glad I could help!
mines always a fail. i alays put the water and milk in together and then add porridge and boil ggggrrrrrrr. so glad iv seen this video 😀😀 i can now make gorgeous porridge after having a gloopy slop like you prob get in a prison which id use as cement for the past 42 years! 😢
lool!
It perfect
thank you dude for how to make oats
+ganesh atale you're welcome! I'm glad I could help. Thank you for watching!
Yes, this is the way I have been making oatmeal for years, only thing that differs is that I add the cinnamon and a small amount of vanilla as I am cooking it instead of adding after its cooked
I love it I love it
+ella Smith thank you very much!
Thanks for the wonderful recipe. I have a question, Can I add more hot milk to it after it is cooked to make it lighter and smoother, Coz I felt it bit Heavy?
+I Lovely thank you! I don't see why not. Although I've never done so I couldn't tell you how it will do. If you feel it was a bit dry when you cooked it then just take it out sooner when it is still pasty and that will solve that problem.
I like when flakes almost disappear and its more gluey. So I boil them in water , let that vaporize out and theen add milk. This is too dry and you get tired of them faster. But thats a matter of taste.
Paulo, can you make a tutorial on how to bake cookies? By the way great video. I will try to comment on all your new video's to give you good feedback!
ThehatedPOOPTATO awesome!! I accept the challenge and will make a tutorial on how to bake cookies! And thank you for the comment!

Every time I try to boil milk, it burns before it boils, and ruins the whole pot.
My first attempt, I tried it on HI, like you said, and it burned almost immediately, but still took several minutes to boil after that.
My second attempt, I tried it on MED, and after 20 minutes, I smelled the burning, but it still wasn't boiling. After a total of 30 minutes, it was only up to a half-boil, but it was too late. The burning had already ruined it.
Any advice?
You can’t cook on high. Once the milk starts to boil, add the oatmeal and immediately lower the heat to low. Keep stirring until done. Don’t allow it to sit still for any amount of time. That’s how you burn the oatmeal. The other tip I would give would be to change the pot you’re using. Sometimes different pots heat up differently and causes that to happen as well. Most importantly, though, no matter how you do it, you’re going to have to be creative because of that very reason. Milk just has the propensity to burn.
@@PauloMachadoPumpkins Thanks so much for the reply! Just to be clear, the milk was burning on "MED" _before_ it ever boiled, which was _before_ I added any oats. That said, I wasn't stirring it while waiting for the milk to boil. Next time, I will try starting the heat halfway between "LO" and "MED" and I will stir constantly. I don't know if it will ever boil at that temperature, so I think I will just go ahead and add the oats at the beginning so that they can get a head start soaking up the milk.
UPDATE!
Attempt 3:
1. Based on some advice I got from an Indian CZcams video, I pre-soaked my pan in cold water for 15 minutes, drained it, and then put in roughly 20 mL of water in the pan.
2. Based on some advice I got from Reddit, I put the quart of skim milk and the cup of steel cut oats together cold in the pan, and I turned the burner up to the mark halfway between "LO" and "MED".
3. I stirred constantly with a large wooden spoon for 2½ hours.
4. VICTORY.
I can say without qualification that these were the greatest oats I had ever eaten. At no point was any part of the dish burned, and it was so creamy and delicious!
Retrospect:
I suspect that stirring while heating was important to prevent the milk from burning. I know that some people online have been able to cook oats with milk more quickly than I have, but I have not been able to replicate their results.
Looking forward:
Standing and stirring for 2½ hours was a bit tiresome, so I probably won't be making oats like this again, but I am glad that it is finally done, and I still have a couple of servings left in the refrigerator. I have no further guesses for how I might attempt to replicate the results of those online and who wrote the instructions on the box who have been able to cook the oats in milk so much faster than this, so I think I will make the remaining steel cut oats with water in a slow cooker which, while not as tasty, is much easier.
@@agiar2000 what kind of pan/pot did you use when the milk kept getting burnt?
@@purplerain5305 I'm not familiar enough with cookware to give a good answer, but I would say that it felt fairly substantial, held maybe two quarts, had a long handle on one side, was silver-colored around the circumference, and copper-colored around the bottom. It was the same pan I used when I succeeded.
I know this is an old video , but you gotta try "Coaches Oats" .
They're so much better than quaker oatmeal.
What aisle they on
I add a lot of milk with honey and cook about 5-7 minutes and pour it into a bowl. Add some banana and eat it like cereal.
I have a large teflon-coated saucier , 3-quart size, that I've used for years for making fudge and for cooking oatmeal. A half-gallon of milk and 3 1/2 handfuls of old-fashioned rolled oats stirred into it. After bringing the milk to a boil, I turn the heat way down and continue cooking, stirring it every 15 minutes. I prefer the oatmeal to be very, very thoroughly cooked and soft. 1 1/2 cup raisins - golden raisins, but ordinary ones are almost equally good. Let stand to cool; the raisins will plump up to grape size.
Since getting an Instant Pot I've made oatmeal in it twice, using the slow-cooker function. It does an excellent job, but it takes four hours or more..
+Kathleen Donnelly I would love to see this. You need to make a video and show me! Post it on CZcams it would be great!
Thanks for the encouragement, but I'm too old (80) to find the energy to make a video. You just cook the oatmeal and add the raisins at the end. I put it in storage jars and keep it in the fridge; or in a plastic container and keep it in the freezer. It is such a comfort food!
just a spoon full of jelly or two, also syrups not bad.
your welcome
Nice one
Thank you for the comment!
i taste it. its very yummy when we add honey in it... but u r superbb.
+Love Singh Singh thank you and thank you for watching!
I dont have the time to actually cook them can I put cold milk in it?
I prefer milk myself, I add it after it has been cooked using water of course.
Same here.

Man said pot but using a pan lol
Hey! I just want to know how much oatmeal you've put in the pot? Is that like one packet of quaker oatmeal or two packets? Cuz I do quaker oatmeals sometimes but I only get a tiny bowl of it and I'm literally confused. Please reply me:) Thank you sooooo much!!
+唐豆 I use three quarters of one cup of Quaker Oats old fashion oatmeal and I put it into one and a half cup of boiling water. I hope that's helpful!
+唐豆 I'm sorry... Not water... Milk... I meant to say one and a half cup of milk!
Nice
Thank you!
so you put the milk in till it is boiling? then what temp do you turn it down to? and then you just pour in the oat meal and stir till its at the correct consistency?
+Marvin C I turn the heat to medium and continue to stir until the desired consistency which for me is a little dryer than what most people serve their oatmeal.
i did that is so good try it so good
+Lisiana st fleur thank you! I'm glad I could help. Thanks for watching!
What do you add to the oatmeal to make it taste better?
I sometimes add almonds or dried fruit like raisins or avocado. That’s the reason I cook it like you see, because from here I can anything I like!
even better, add half a sliced banana while it's cooking so it breaks down. once it's done, mash and mix the banana into the oatmeal. add a lot of cinnamon. enjoy!
That sounds good actually! I need to try that one day!

How about adding the cinnamon and raisins during the the cooking process?
+Tubescaper you could do anything you like. The way I cook it is the most basic way you can cook it. From there you can do whatever you like.
Much better than cooking it with water imo, this is just heavenly while the water one is just very bland.
Great I use milk!
Awesome! Thanks for the comment!
nice i like jelly in my oatmeal
Nice! Jelly? That's new to me but very interesting! Thanks for sharing! I have to try that sometime!
Can I use almond milk??
YESSS you can XD
Can you substitute the milk with powdered milk or milo?
I suppose you could although I’m not sure how it would taste. I never tried it that way.
how long should I stir it for
Once the milk boils and you lower the heat to medium, you need to keep stirring it until the oatmeal thickens to the consistency you like.
I subscribed
+Kiara Villasenor thank you very much! That's awesome!
also is it ok if i used evaporated milk?
I’m not sure. I never used evaporated to cook oatmeal so I couldn’t tell you. I am sorry.
I normally use,, just add water
@@winnienjoki6551 oh ok thx
i double checked if im wearing my glasses thought they stopped working
Haha... sorry man! At the time the camera I used didn’t have auto focus and I obliviously missed the focus point!
lol me too and i don't even have glasses on
sir pls reply me .. can we eat it daily for gym
+Love Singh Singh I eat it daily. I don't see why it can't be part of your diet. I find that oatmeal is a great part of your breakfast!
Can you prep a batch of this in advance and reheat later?
You can, but I would not recommend it. It won't taste nor have the same texture is one reason. The other reason is that if you are giving oatmeal a chance you will give it up before you start. Now, if you already enjoy the taste of oatmeal and you just want to make it convenient for meal prepping ahead, then I can say yes. Just remember the first reason I mentioned above.
Paulo Machado Photography Thank you!
Love yourr shiiiirt
Thank you!
my weight is 60 kg . is it effect on weight
May i knows what kind of milk use?
You can use any type of milk. My favorite is fat free milk.
is that pot steel or aluminium?
Stainless Steel! Here is a video I made that updates this older video, check it out: czcams.com/video/4fe7RHEr1rw/video.html
I eat oatmeal everyday and cook it with milk.. always get the bottom of the pot sticky.. which makes it a little bit hard to wash after.. I wonder if there is like a special cooking pot for it..
+jam de la rama that's a hard question but if you cook it in low heat it won't be as sticky, and if you let it soak in water for 10 to 15 minutes it makes it so much easier to clean up in the end!
+Paulo Machado oh yeahh. but hey if there is id like to get one! Thanks for replying sir! :-)
+jam de la rama no problem!
is it ok to cook the cinamon with it?
Absolutely! The way you see me cooking Oatmeal is the most basic of ways, from here you can use your imagination to make it however you like it!
Paulo Machado well, thank u so much! this really helped btw!!
Thank you so much! Reach out anytime if you have anymore questions!
