I enjoyed this recipe as is, but I will not use so much fruit the next time.

I enjoy oatmeal, but was eager to try something different. I have made this 3 times and my favorite variation was when I used almonds instead walnuts. I also did top off the oatmeal with milk, because I believe it drowned out some of the flavor. You should definitely try this recipe and then just tweek it to your liking!

YUM! We've made this twice and both times we thought it was delicious!! The only substitution we made was using pecans instead of walnuts. We didn't have any walnuts and I'm not a huge fan of them anyway. I can't believe people thought this was bland! Maybe they didn't let oatmeal cook long enough to let the water boil down. It was perfectly sweet, the raisins were plump, and the nuts added a nice crunch and flavor. I'll never make plain oatmeal again and this is almost as easy as the packets.
UPDATE!!! I make this ALL the time and it is perfect. I've made it for company, who rave just as much as I do about it. Thanks Ellie!!

This oatmeal recipe is great! Adds a bit more of a flavorful kick than regular oatmeal. I added craisins instead of raisins. I prefer the more tangy flavor. Easy to make. Would definitely make again!

This was crazy delicious! I made it with cranberries and toasted almonds which added the nutty/sweet flavor that made it simply irresistible. This will definitely be a staple of breakfast for time to come.
Thanks, Ellie!!!

I find that I have trouble sleeping at night due to an illness, so I have a very annoying (and weight-gaining habit of snacking late at night, since that's the equivalent of early evening for other people. I rarely have anything healthy around to eat, but I tried this recipe tonight. So quick and easy, I almost ruined it! For anyone like me who tends to take 3 or 4 times as long as indicated to cook anything, don't expect that to happen here. I started the oats cooking and almost before I had the rest measured out, they were done!

I would say that for anyone with a sweet tooth, you may need a bit more sugar and raisins than listed, but that's just me. I also used a little less nutmeg and a tad more cinnamon, also simply because I like cinnamon more than nutmeg. Definitely one I'll be keeping handy.
