Instant oatmeal recipes

Mix and match the options to create a healthy and economical alternative to the store-bought packets.

In this post I'm going to show you how to take leftover packets of instant oatmeal--in any flavor you happen to have on hand--and turn them into luscious muffins.

I did a quick freezer cooking session last night while making food to take to our church's covered dish supper. I was in a bit of a hurry and a little scatter-brained since I got a late start, but within 35 minutes I managed to pull together five different dishes to take to the church supper plus make some barbecued meatballs and homemade instant oatmeal packets for the freezer.

These cookies are just sweet enough to feel like a treat (thanks to mineral-rich maple syrup) with a crunchy exterior and a chewy, cake-like texture that isn't too dense. Your kids won't believe you're letting them having cookies for breakfast - and they will never suspect that they are healthy.

For mornings when you're in a rush, this homemade instant oatmeal mix is a great addition to your pantry.
