Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets

My oldest girl just loves these Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets, and she requests it almost every morning. She actually prefers the homemade over the store-bought packets, which is fine by me because it’s less expensive to make it homemade. I added in chocolate chips this last time, but she preferred it without the chocolate chips.

Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets

To each ziploc bag add the following:

• 1/2 cup oats
• 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon or less cinnamon
• chocolate chips or raisins (optional)

Store in an airtight container or freeze for up to three months. To serve, pour the instant oatmeal packet into a bowl and add 3/4 cup water or milk. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes until cooked. Stir and serve.
