Extra Recipe Tips

You can also use quick oats, barley oats, or gluten free oats in this recipe instead of old-fashioned oats (cooking times may vary).
Other unrefined sugar sweeteners I like to use are coconut sugar, honey, or agave.
Additional toppings for oatmeal: bananas, berries, frozen blueberries, almonds, flax seeds, and peanut butter.
