Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 4 tablespoons Brown sugar (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Powdered milk (optional, for creaminess)
- 1 cup Mix-ins like dried fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips (optional)
- 1 cup per serving Boiling water or hot milk (for serving)
Instructions
Measure the rolled oats into a blender or food processor.
Pulse the oats 5-7 times until they are partially powdered but still retain some texture to mimic instant oats.
Transfer the powdered oats to a large mixing bowl.
Add brown sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, and powdered milk (if using) to the bowl with the oats. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add any optional mix-ins such as dried fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips and stir well to combine.
Divide the mixture into single-serving portions (around 1/2 cup per serving) and store in airtight containers or resealable plastic bags for convenience.
To prepare: Pour 1/2 cup of the oatmeal mix into a bowl or mug. Add 1 cup of boiling water or hot milk and stir well. Let sit for 1-2 minutes to thicken before serving.
