Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Shake the oatmeal container to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  2. Remove the lid and film. Pour boiling water (or milk for extra creaminess) over the oats until they are covered by about ½ inch of liquid.
  3. Cover with the lid and let stand for 3 minutes.
  4. Stir well and enjoy. If you prefer a sweeter oatmeal, drizzle with a little maple syrup.

Recipe Tips

For a creamier texture, use milk instead of water.

Let the oatmeal stand for the full 3 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the liquid properly.

Customize your toppings: add fresh berries, a sprinkle of cinnamon or extra nuts.
