Cook this recipe
- milk-3 cups
- rolled oats-2 cups
- water-1 cup
- medium apples-2 count
- carrots-1 cup
- honey-3 tablespoons
- ground cinnamon-1 teaspoon
- vanilla extract-1 teaspoon
- fine salt-1/4 teaspoon
Dice the apples and grate the carrots before starting the stovetop cooking.
Keep fingers clear of the knife blade and box grater while preparing the apples and carrots.
Warm the milk, water and salt over medium heat until gently steaming, stirring frequently. Use a heavy saucepan with room for the porridge, at least 4 quarts at the base serving size. Watch for scorching and foaming.
Stir in the oats, apples, carrots, cinnamon and vanilla, keeping the mixture at a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat if the milk foams.
Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until the oats are tender and the porridge is thick and creamy.
Stir carefully to avoid splashes from the hot porridge.
Remove from heat, stir in honey, and let the porridge rest for 2 minutes to settle.
Divide evenly among servings and let cool to a comfortable eating temperature.
Let the porridge cool slightly before serving, especially for children.
