How much water to put in Oats

If you've landed here, I know two things about you: First, you cook, and second, you are computer literate.

So . . . . How much water do you put in Rolled Oats ?

First: Use as much water as you want to eat.

Second: Use a water to oats ratio of 2 to 1. Or think of it this way: one part rolled oats to 2 parts water.

• What ever water you boil, put in one-half that amount of rolled oats. Examples of proportions:
  • 2 cups water -- 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup water -- 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1.5 [one and one-half cups] water -- 3/4 cup of rolled oats.

• When you're real tired in the morning, this is the better way to approach it:
  • You figure how much you want to feed people -- use that much water. Rolled oats serving size is usually 1 cup of water per person, though this varies for steel cut oats or "heart healthy portions".
  • You boil the water.
  • You add exactly half as much rolled oats.
