    NOTE FROM MR BREAKFAST:

    This recipe leaves me with a couple questions. What is
    Elam's Scotch-style oatmeal? Should it be prepared oatmeal
    or raw oats? The recipe is spread all over the internet
    with no answers to thees questions? I appeal to the
    original recipe submitter to shed some light on these
    issues? Or if anyone has tried this recipe or a similar
    one, please comment and help us turn this dud of a
    recipe into a star.

    Based on my experience with similar recipes, I'd recommend
    using 1 and 1/2 cups cooked oatmeal (3/4 cup quick cooking
    oats prepared with 1 and 1/3 cup water and a pinch of
    salt).

    This recipe uses oatmeal as base and brown sugar as a
    sweetener.

    Mr Breakfast would like to thank baseball27 for this
    recipe.

    From Bob's Red Mill: Scottish oats are ground on stone
    mills from whole oat groats. This results in a fairly
    fine oat yet still more coarsely ground than flour. As
    a result, Scottish oatmeal takes on a more porridge-like
    texture than you'd typically expect from oats when
    cooked. It is creamy, thick and cooks almost instantly
    when combined with boiling water. Scottish oats are
    excellent for baking and are used in countless recipes.
