Guest guest Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 Homemade Instant Cinnamon-Raisin Oatmeal Ingredients 4 tablespoons " quick " oats 1 tablespoon brown sugar ( for variety, try vanilla sugar) 1 teaspoon raisins 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon dash of salt 1-2 walnut pieces, broken, optional 1/2 cup boiling water Serves / Yields 1 individual serving Preparation Instructions In a plastic sandwich bag or zip-lock snack bag, combine all the dry ingredients Seal each bag and store in a cool, dry place. When ready to use, place the contents into a cereal bowl and add 1/2 cup boiling water. Let stand about a minute before its ready to eat. Helpful Hints Use fresh cinnamon to bring out the flavor, and try different kinds of cinnamon to vary the taste. The Chinese cinnamon is a good starting point, and Ceylon cinnamon is also fine. Saigon or Vietnamese cinnamon has a stronger taste, which I personally like. This can be a good recipe to prepare with children, since they can work as a team to measure the ingredients and assemble each portion. This recipe was provided by James Zychowicz from Madison.
