Butterscotch Oatmeal

This is a recipe I've been making all during lockdown, because I have time to do such things in the morning now.  It's not really butterscotch-y so much, but it's delish and easy.  There's an egg in it, but you can't taste it; it blends in and adds richness like an egg in rice pudding.  I cut the sugar in half on this recipe; and it's still plenty sweet.
