Tips
You can cook Malt-O-Meal in the microwave. Measure and pour all the ingredients into a microwave-safe dish. Microwave the ingredients for one minute on high and then stir. Microwave the ingredients for about two minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until the cereal thickens. Watch the cooking process carefully because the Malt-O-Meal can bubble over easily. Remove the cereal and let it stand for about five minutes before serving. Consider replacing half the cooking water with milk to make the Malt-O-Meal cereal richer.
