Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
- 1 large storage container glass or plastic with air-tight lid
Ingredients
- 5 cups quick-cooking (instant) oats
- 1 cup brown sugar sub with coconut sugar if desired
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons salt
- ½ cup powdered milk optional for extra creaminess (sub dairy-free option like powdered coconut milk or powdered oat milk instead)
- water for preparation or milk of choice
Instructions
- Start by adding the oats, brown sugar, chia seeds, cinnamon, salt and dry milk to a large mixing bowl. You can process half of the oats in a blender or food processor if you want a smoother oatmeal.
- Mix everything well then divide into ½ cup bags or store in a large container with a scoop.
- To prepare the oatmeal, add ½ cup of the oatmeal mix and ¾ cup water to a bowl. Microwave for 1:30-2 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Top with your favorite toppings such as berries or nuts. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
The oatmeal can also be prepared on the stove-top. Combine the oatmeal mix with the water in a small sauce pot over medium-low heat. Stir until combined. Cook at a simmer, stirring frequently until the oatmeal thickens to your desired consistency.
