I purchased this brand of oats twice so far. First batch were great, cooked through pretty quickly, as advertised, and were creamy and yummy. Second batch not so much. Why? Because I bought the steel cut oats instead of the rolled oats. I waited until I used every bag in the pack, to make sure this wasn't just a one bag mishap. Every bag in the steel cut batch contained oats that took forever to cook. First bowl I heated them in the microwave for 3 min like I did with the rolled ones, but they came out practically uncooked. I microwaved them for another 5 mins - with breaks and adding more and more water every 1-2 min in between, as the oaks were soaking in much more liquid than in the instructions. But the oats were still not soft enough, so after microwaving them I added boiling water and let them sit for 30 min until they finally softened while still soaking. So now I cook them by pouring boiling water on them, on a 3 to 1 ratio, I let them sit for 10 min, then I microwave them for 3 min, with breaks to avoid overspills. Then I add more boiling water and let them sit, cause they keep soaking while they cool down and would otherwise turn into a hard mess. If I want a quick breakfast I pour the hot water on them at night and leave them in a covered glass container in the fridge overnight, and in the morning I add some milk and heat them for 2 min stirring them mid-time. The only other cooking choice I figured is boiling them on the stove, but it takes forever and you have to stand by them the whole time to mix them, so that's a “no” for me.Definitely these aren't quick cooking oats, more like regular ones.My advice: if you wan truly quick cooking oats get the rolled type. If you get the steel cut expect to spend a lot of time cooking them into an edible dish.

Surprisingly good! Would definitely buy again.
