I love instant oatmeal 'raisins and spice' flavor, but I wanted better oats, so this is my own twist. This recipe is not 'quick,' but if you make this large amount, you can refrigerate in small storage containers for a quick and easy snack or meal. This oatmeal taste great hot but even tastes good cold when you are on the go.

  • 8 cups water

  • 2 cups steel-cut oats

  • 1 cup whole milk

  • cup brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  4. Stir cranberries into the oatmeal to distribute throughout the mixture; cook just until the berries are warmed, 2 to 3 minutes.
