Steps
In a saucepan, combine the rolled oats and breast milk/formula.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and cooked through.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
If desired, transfer the cooked oatmeal to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Otherwise, leave it as is for a chunkier texture.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 3 days.
