Homemade baby cereal

Serves:

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1 1/4 cup water

Method

Put the water in a pot, then add the oats.

Bring the liquid close to a boil while stirring.

Turn the heat off, cover the pot and let the oatmeal cook in its own steam till soft (about 10 minutes).

This process is similar to making instant rice.

Flavor the oatmeal with a little expressed breast milk or formula, if desired.

Be sure oatmeal is not too hot when served.
