How To Make Homemade Oatmeal Packets
Ingredients
- Oatmeal {use Quick Oats}
- Add-ins of your choice: Brown Sugar Raisins, Dried Fruits, Blueberry Craisins
- Powdered Milk {optional} ~ we add fresh milk when making ours so I leave the powdered milk out.
Instructions
- Measure out about 1/2 cup of oatmeal for each ziploc bag or other reusable container, then add in some fun flavors! {see list above for ideas}
- Now, my boys are *always* hungry, and used to gobble up 2 packets of oatmeal, so I make larger bags with 1 full cup of oatmeal…
- We cook the oatmeal by adding milk {to the consistency desired}, and microwaving for 45 – 60 seconds.
- When you’re ready to cook the oatmeal, another add-in that goes great with Brown Sugar is Homemade Maple Syrup! There you go… you’re all done!

This is a great idea! My favorite oatmeal has dried cherries. And for a little protein, I also add chopped pecans or slivered almonds. Chopped walnuts would be great with the bananas! Thanks for the time saving tip!

Great ideas, Debbie!

That is such a good idea. I usually buy the organic maple flavored oatmeal at the store but I am going to make this. Thanks for the recipe!
