Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Prep the instant oatmeal according to the recipe instructions.
  • Once the oats are finished and cooled, place 1/2 cup instant oatmeal mix into each jar or resealable bag. (1 batch of instant oatmeal will make 12-single serve jars/packets of instant oatmeal.)
  • Then add 1 tbsp of heavy cream powder to each jar/bag, followed by 2-3 tbsp of freeze-dried blueberries(the amount will really depend on the size of your freeze-dried berries) Cover/seal tightly and store in a cool dry place until ready to use.
  • When you are ready to eat your oatmeal, pour 1 jar/bag into a small bowl, followed by 1 -1 1/2 cups boiling water, stir, and allow the oatmeal to sit for 5 minutes or until thickened to your liking.
  • Top with a sprinkle of blueberries and enjoy!

Notes

Blueberries and cream instant oatmeal can be stored in a cool, dry spot for up to 1 month.
For quick and easy breakfasts on the go, prep your oatmeal in 16 oz jars instead of 8 oz jars, this way you can add your hot water right to the jar, and take it for the road!

You can also make this recipe extra creamy by using hot milk in place of the hot water. Personally, I like to use whole milk, but you can use any type of milk you like, even non-dairy milk. Almond milk, coconut milk, cashew milk, and soy milk will all work well!
