I have tried a lot of things to make GF oats taste good and have failed miserably! I came across this recipe per pinterest and was surprised at how much my whole family loved it! I only made a small amount the first time around to make sure it was a keeper, and it definitely is! This is what we have had for breakfast everyday for a week now, which says a lot! I love that is doesn't have all the added 'stuff' they put in our food these days....
Instant
Homemade Oatmeal
6
cups GF quick rolled oats (Bob’s Red Mill)
1
cup dry milk powder
3/4
cup brown sugar
1
tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4
teaspoon ground cloves
1/2
teaspoon allspice (I did not have / use this)
1
teaspoon salt
1)
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
2)
Mix well.
3)
Store in a large container. Label and date. Keep in a cool, dry place for up to
6 months (it never lasts that long at our house, but good to know anyways).
Directions
for use: Shake the container to mix ingredients. In a small pot, heat 2/3 cup
water to boiling. Add 1/3 cup oatmeal mix. Note: There is approx. 1/3 cup of
oatmeal in a packet of instant oatmeal. You may prefer to increase this amount
based on the size of servings needed. Reduce heat and cook for 4-5 minutes, or
until desired consistency is reached, stir frequently. Can also heat in
microwave for one minute.
This is just a base (which tastes amazing by itself!), but you could easily add in any additional dried fruit, fresh fruit or maple syrup.
Heidi, just curious, what brand of dry milk powder does your family use?
ReplyDeleteI use the dry milk powder from our LDS church cannery. I buy it in bulk and then can it myself. I hope that helps. :)
