Oatmeal with walnuts
Description
You can make a quick breakfast from regular oatmeal and feed your whole family, combining taste and nutrition in one dish. Nuts, dried fruits, honey, and butter will help you with this. If you cook the porridge using farm milk, you can skip adding butter, as the milk itself is quite rich.

Add the oat flakes to the milk. Be sure to read the cooking instructions on the package to check how many minutes they need to be cooked, as there are both quick-cooking and regular oats. If using regular oats, they must be rinsed from husk before adding. Simmer the oats in milk over the lowest heat for the time indicated on the package.
