Recently I have been making this just about every morning for my kids. They love it. It is kind of like Cream of Wheat, but more wholesome and better for the planet because it is made from raw oats that I purchase in bulk at my health food store. Buying oatmeal in bulk cuts out the processing and packaging performed by a factory. If everyone bought their oatmeal this way there would be at least one less factory polluting the enviroment !
I put 3/4 cup raw oats in a blender and blend until they are powdery. Then I add about 3 cups of milk to the blender and blend for a few seconds. Pour this mixture into a pan and cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally until it thickens. This takes about 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to low if it starts to boil. If desired, you can add a sweetener while it is cooking. I like to add a spoonful of brown sugar. My mother-in-law taught me about this way of cooking oatmeal. Very warm and comforting!
