I tried this recipe because I wanted something more than the usual box recipe on the Quaker container. Great idea using apple juice for the added flavor. I made the following modifications to the original recipe: I replaced the apples with raisins, skipped the pecans, and only made half of the recipe. I have saved this recipe and use it as a go to when wanting oatmeal for breakfast.
