   In a small saucepan, combine the oats, water, milk, and salt over medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Once it comes to a low boil, reduce the heat and let simmer until it reaches your desired thickness. Stir occasionally to keep the oatmeal from burning on the bottom of the pan.

4. 4

   Add desired toppings and a splash of additional milk if you would like.
