Usually I’m not a big oatmeal eater, however; when I saw this mix on Mommy’s Kitchen I decided I needed to try it. Oh my goodness, it’s a lot better than the instant oatmeal you get at the grocery store. I think I like it because I can add what I want to it so it’s unique to my likings.
Stars of the “recipe”:
- 2 and 1/4 cup of instant oatmeal
- 1/3 cup dried milk powder
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 to 2 tsp of cinnamon (I added more because I love the taste of cinnamon.)
- 1 cup of raisins or any other dried fruit (I used blueberry flavored craisins in mine. I also added chopped pecans to my mix.)
Directions:
- Mix all of the ingredients together and store in a airtight container.
- Label the container with the directions on how to prepare the oatmeal.
To Prepare OatMeal:
- Scoop 1/2 cup oatmeal into a bowl and mix with 1/2 cup water. You may need a bit more water if you like you oatmeal thinner.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute stir and enjoy.
