Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups low-fat milk
  • 2 cups oats (quick or old-fashioned)
  • 1–2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4–1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (preferably freshly grated)
  • 3 eggs, beaten

Instructions

  1. The night before, in a saucepan, combine milk, oats, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg. Cover pot and refrigerate overnight.
  2. In the morning, remove pot from refrigerator and stir. Replace cover and heat on medium-low or medium heat for about 4 minutes; stirring occasionally to prevent from sticking to the bottom. (Stirring isn’t essential if you have to leave the stove to do your hair.)
  3. Add eggs and stir constantly with fork until eggs are no longer shiny and are cooked, about 1 minute.
