These will be perfect for my grandmother. She's about to turn 106 and still living on her own. It will feel like she is still cooking for herself but make it so much easier and safer for her to do so. I think I'll just make hers in a batch in quart jars so she can make as little or as much as she likes.
I use sugar free vanilla powdered coffee creamer as a sweetener with a few canned peaches, it makes a nice peaches and cream oatmeal!
Thank you! My husband is diabetic and I wasn't sure how to incorporate a sweetener into a homemade oatmeal (he refuses to do the packaged sweeteners like stevia or splenda) this will work really well! Thank you so much!
I've added dates, nuts, and figs to the list. Can you do more DIY recipes to help us cut down on prepacked and processed goods? 🙏🏽
I would like more DIY recipes also.
I bet such recipes are on their way!
me too please
Me also. And raisins.
Oh, figs would be good!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! I finally got these made (GF), my son has Celiac and hasn’t had instant oatmeal since diagnosed a few years ago. He tried one this AM & I got the thumbs up! Thank you for helping to bring back a part of normal food for him. I’m still learning this GF life for him & appreciate something I could easily convert for him. Thanks for your time & efforts to teach & inspire food security!
You showed up like an angel my friend! Walked into the kitchen to find oatmeal and brown sugar scattered on the counter from the kids this morning and thought, 'There's got to be a better way!' Thank you so much!!!! I love this new series!!!!
My celiac 9 year old great grandson needs GF oats If you have been to a mill, you know there is dust everywhere Gluten free us processed in a plant where NO wheat is processed Completely gluten free. If he eats straight oatmeal, he doubles over with pain . We use Bobs Red Mill Gluten Free Old Fashion oats for our granola and we will use it in this wonderful recipe. Thanks for the idea!
Those glasses with tops are available at the dollar store for $1.25 each. I purchased them there for years. You have a choice of white covers or red covers.
Really love this idea and I’ll be making up my oatmeal breakfast for the next week today. Thank you.
Yes, we are making more, too. Jim
I thought I saw them at Dollar Tree…thanks!
Peanut butter powder and chocolate chip. Love the blender and powder milk idea. Thanks
I love this idea! I have dehydrated passionfruit, kiwi, mango and I need to get more pineapple. We will add coconut to most of them! And nuts! And bananas. Strawberries too. Oh I can’t wait to go do some of these for the grandbabies! I think my dried coconut milk will be a great addition too.
I have been making a similar recipe using zip bags. I add slivered almonds to all my varieties. I make a lot of the combinations you did, but one of my favorites is Almond Joy using almonds, coconut, and chocolate chips.
Well, I feel like a dolt! Why didn't I think of this? I make overnight oats all the time with sugar and spices, nuts, and/or dehydrated fruit. But like you, I sometimes buy the ridiculously expensive prepackaged commercial stuff. What a clever girl you are! This will save me bunches of $$! Thank you. Looking forward to the rest of your vids on this topic.
As a person with Celiacs in order for it to be certified gluten free it has to be grown on land that has never had wheat, rye or barley grown previously. Otherwise, even though oats are gluten free if there are seeds that grow from previous gluten grains it can be cross contaminated.
Additionally, most commercially processed oats, come from factories that also process other gluten containing grains creating again, risk for cross contamination. I believe I read that Quaker for example has only one certified gluten free facility in the US ( which is one reason their GF oats are higher priced and have limited availability). The GF “fad” diet has only made things more difficult for those of us who have no choice.
Plus there is a chance for cross contamination while growing with water runoff and wind drifting 🤷🏻♀️
Yes, I don’t have celiacs but I have severe intolerance. It breaks out my face with hives and itchy red patches, stomach pain and feeling extremely I’ll for several days 😩.
@@donnad57I’m so glad you posted this. I came here to correct her, too. Thank you!!
Have you ever been poor? Poor people can't afford to be allergic to gluten
I make overnight oatmeal with oats, chia seeds, milk, honey, and Greek yogurt. Then just add fruit on top. So good.
I like making overnight oats (not shelf stable) using steel cut oats, uncooked. I use half pint canning jars. Add diced apple, Craisins, chopped pecans ( or walnuts), cinnamon and sugar. Top it off with milk ... Half and Half is so delicious ... Stir and refrigerate overnight. I make up several of these at a time to have throughout the week. Oh, I don't heat them (but I suppose you could), just eat them out of the jar. So yummy!
I do heat them in the winter @@danniemcdonald7675
I adore Chia seeds and Kefir.
Your timing is perfect. I was actually searching for a recipe for oatmeal packets when you video notification came through! I made this up for my husband right away. He prefers only raisins or cranberries. The mix is in a 1/2 gallon jar with a scoop so he can make his serving size as desired and add a few pieces of fruit if he wants.
I love your idea of storing in a large jar, which also sounds convenient! A mason jar could be vaccum-sealed to ensure longer-term freshness. Going to give this a try.
I also would like some walnut pieces in mine. With a tsp of maple syrup instead of brown sugar.
Yum, just started doing this. Using zip lock bags, less expensive then buying and taste great. Thanks for doing this. My son does the overnight oatmeal and adds flavored protein powder, this is our breakfast when I come to visit.
My husband likes to add PB powder and mini chocolate chips. He says it’s like eating a warm no bake cookie lol.
Wow I never thought ab that! A healthy chocolate chip oatmeal "cookie" for breakfast sounds like a great idea!😊
Great idea! I would add a bit more milk - milk proteins make the cereal creamy too. I love the prospect of NOT using plastic or styrofoam for these! Note: If you sew at all, there are several YT vids for making an easy-to-make small quilted bowl/cup cosy for hot bowls. I like “Crafty Gemini”, and “Crafty Grrl”.
The bowl cozies are wonderful and very easy to sew. I made a variety of sizes for myself as well as gifts for others. They also are nice to use when placing hot bowls or plates on the table or counter, and even eating a bowl of ice cream because you can hold the bowl without freezing your hands ☺️
@@donnad57 My friend made a set of bowl cozies for me. They are adorable! I use one every time I eat an oatmeal cup!
This is such a money saver over those packaged cups. I got those exact glass containers at dollar tree! Love them. I also grind my rolled oats in blender until coarse.
I thought about going there for them then read your post. 😂
Thanks so much for the idea of getting the glasses at Dollar Tree!
I use the same ingredients to make overnight oats. I just add milk to the jar before I go to bed and stick it in the refrigerator. The next morning, breakfast is ready. I can eat it cold or heat it in the microwave. I usually eat it cold. It is so good!
Great tip! Thanks.
OH MY❗️ Your enthusiasm is infectious! Helping people save and having fun doing it! I love it! If you use chia seeds they soak up 10 times their weight, you can make jams/jelly out of chia and fresh, mashed blueberries or strawberries, it is also yummy! I love maple/brown sugar, hmmmm, cranberry apple? Now you've done it, lol... This was a fun one! Thank you both, NHNancy 🍏🍐🍋🍊🍉🍇🫐🍒🍍🥥......
I’m 63 and live alone. I freeze dry and throw away a lot of food that I can’t eat, because it’s so hard to cook for one. I am definitely going to make these oatmeal cups. Can you do more meals in a jar single serving videos?
Great video. I add powdered almonds. I measure my oats by weight & have at least 50g per day to help lower cholesterol. You mentioned dried apricots. I usually add these as well for the taste & the potassium content. Supposed to help lower high blood pressure. I tend to soak my oats overnight & eat them at room temperature for breakfast with a little bit of maple syrup or honey. This video will inspire me to try a wider variety of dried fruits. Thankyou!
You are so welcome. Thanks for your comment!
I love this preparedness activity. What a time and money saver! NOTE: IF someone chooses to use Styrofoam please DO NOT use Styrofoam in the microwave. I have been told fumes are put off in microwave heating. Styrofoam is not marked microwave safe.
Thank you I didn't know that
I would not even put those plastic lids in the microwave. When plastics say microwave safe, they are referring mostly to the bowl, LOL, not our human bodies. There are too many plastics leaching chemicals into our foods.
This is great! And, I might add a spoonful of natural peanut butter to the banana cup when adding hot water 👍🏼. Thank you!!!
Would it work to add dried PB2 peanut butter powder to the dry mix?
@@maryschmidt6945 great idea- I'll try it.
I eat Oatmeal for breakfast often. The pineapple and coconut sounds delicious.I went to Walmart and got pineapple tidbits and coconut flaces.
Those look awesome! Think you should call the pineapple and coconut one Pina colada😊 oatmeal!
Interesting. Jim
I made the oatmeal cups today and it is delicious! I found the perfect bowl with lid at my dollar tree.
Fantastic!
I would add in pecans or walnuts with cinnamon
I make something very similar. I got the recipe from an old "Company's Coming" cookbook years ago. I like it more plain so I leave out the brown sugar and cinnamon, then I can add whatever toppings I want. I think I add a bit more powdered milk as well. I also grind the chia seeds with the oatmeal and a bit of oat bran together. I usually make a huge batch and split it with my brother. So yummy!! Dried apricots with a tiny bit of almond flavoring is just awesome.
Never thought to grind the seeds! Great idea👍
Your variations sound very good. Jim
I just found this and tried to make oatmeal like this, using 5-minute stuff, and it turned out great! Easy and quick. I used honey for sweetener, just oatmeal, one half cup, cinnamon, and a half cup of boiling water, waited five minutes and I had perfect oatmeal. Tomorrow I'm shopping for powdered milk, agave nectar, raisins, some dried fruit, and powdered milk. Subscribed for whatever else you might have. Looks good!
Sounds great!
I have a canister with 1 minute oatmeal and raisins. I put 1/2 cup in a bowl. Add sugar, salt, cinnamon, butter, and 1/4 cup water and cook in the microwave 1 1/2 min. I do not like milk but you could put milk after and leave out butter. You could add dry milk, salt, sugar, and cinnamon to the oatmeal and raisin canister and just add the water as you use it.
Thank you SO MUCH for this. I fix meals for my elderly parents and I started taking them these oatmeal cups with dehydrated or freeze dried fruit and they love them! They are so easy for them to pop in the microwave and have a nutritious breakfast.
That sounds wonderful! Jim
I might start eating breakfast now. Quick and easy, and cheap. I have everything to make them. Thanks
Wal-Mart has 1 oz packets of various freeze dried fruit for $3.28. They also had blue berries that were dried, but they were soft like raisins. These were the same price but you get 3oz. The reason we care what process they use is shelf life. For my purposes i think any of the dried items will be fine. In addition to oatmeal cup ingredients, i got a spray bottle for steramine and two dark finished, large sized heavy duty bread pans. 😊
We did this for my daughter’s sleepover birthday party breakfast years ago. The kids had a blast mixing up their options 😊
How fun! Great idea.
This simple breakfast recipe is one of my all- time favorites. I just made another batch. I have added chopped almonds or walnuts, as well as pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds to what ever fruit I have used.
Sounds great! Jim
This was so much fun to watch! Perfect timing as it is getting quite cold here in Minnesota. You and Jim are so adorable! 👴❣👵
Dates and walnuts is a favorite for us.
This is my favorite new recipe of 2023. I know it's just oatmeal but I have modified it for my taste. It's an easy prep, I add dried fruit & nuts in the morning, add the boiling water. After eating the pint jar goes into the dishwasher. I don't care for the texture of cold overnight oats. I used to cook my oats in the microwave but I had to use an 8 cup glass measuring cup to allow enough space so the oats would not overflow while cooking. After cooking I had to wash that large measuring cup. This is simple, better than cooked oats & healthier than store bought instant oat packages.
Great idea for healthy instant breakfasts. I like my porridge quite creamy so I think I would lightly blitz the 4 cups of oats (+ grind the single cup). I think this would also help to cook it more quickly. Loved your enthusiasm 🥰
Another suggestion is to use frozen fruit, just p😮it in after microwaving the oatmeal. The coolness cools down the oatmeal so it can be eaten comfortably
Yes, Pam is adding more fruits to the oatmeals packages. Jim
I sure loved your enthusiasm after tasting your oatmeal with pineapple and coconut!
It us very good! Jim
What grains are in your six grain cereal? Couldn’t we put those grains through a flaker and make our own? This sounds so wonderful but I’ve not seen six grain cereal anywhere. I really interested it finding that too. Thank you for your research.
My favorite is dehydrated raspberries and dark chocolate chips ... which I am now making. Haha
I have been saving all my almond butter jars with metal lids. These will be perfect. Plus, they solve the problems of rodents chewing through the plastic lids and of additional plastics getting into our bodies.
Last year I found a recipe for a hot cereal mix that adds cream of wheat, chia, and quinoa to oatmeal, which I ate throughout the winter with pecans and my dehydrated cherries. The quinoa gave it a surprisingly fresh taste that I loved, so I'll be doing that again this winter. I like the idea of added instant milk powder to it.
Love the cherries idea! Sounds delicious! We'll do cherry too!
❤❤❤
I love chia seeds in oatmeal! I don't need sugar in my oatmeal but my husband does.
Made 12 jars for storage. Used desiccant with them. Opened two and added sliced pecans, apples, and dates. So good!!
That sounds great! Jim
My husband loves oatmeal but I don't have time in the mornings to fix it so these will be wonderful . Thank you so much.
Love it. Will do it soon as I get to store. Coconut with any fruit would be good.
IMPORTANT CORRECTION: I love your channel and everything you do, but it's important to note that nearly all oatmeal is cross contaminated with wheat. You are correct that PURE oats and oatmeal don't contain gluten, but again, almost all oatmeal is contaminated with gluten (in the fields, in the trucks, and the processing mills). People with true celiac need the the oatmeal that is certified and labeled "gluten free". I would feel bad if one of your viewers fed normal oatmeal to someone with celiac disease and told them it was gluten free based on what you said, and I'm sure you would too. You are so thorough and so I thought you would want to know. Thanks again for your wonderful channel!
Going to make some of these with my dehydrated rhubarb and strawberry as toppers.
Oh I love this!! When our children were school aged.. I kept a few glass cookie jars of various flavored oatmeals on the "low counter" for them to serve themselves breakfast. We also have a hot/cold electric water dispenser that holds the 5 gallon jugs...still have it. What a nice Labor Day tradition to mix up various flavored oatmeals for the start of the new school year. I would also use maple extract for maple and brown sugar oatmeal. Fond memories.. thank you!
I love this idea! I would think that previously used jelly jars, or other commercially bought jars of similar size would work great too. Thanks for all you do!
You are very welcome. Yes, there are many options for packaging. I am just a sucker for pretty glassware!
What a great idea! Convenience wins! Having these made up ahead of time would help us to reach for healthier foods.
I love this video very much
Was thinking that an 8 oz jar would be good for younger children who might not be able toceat a full half cup of oatmeal (short squatty type, not jelly jars). They could participate in creating their add ins. Would also enjoy some nuts in some of them if taking to work. Great idea and so easy to put together. Especially with winter knocking at the door Thanks!
I’m watching this video again to get the recipe written down, and I’m chuckling over your saying that oats are of course gluten free and it’s stylish these days to label things as “gluten free”. My job in the pizza shop has paper plates for customers that are labeled “recyclable”, and that always makes me laugh! I thought you’d get a smile out of that as well. Thank you for this video, Pam - I love oatmeal and am excited to try this new method!
Yes...made me laugh. Several people have corrected me, however, noting that if rolled oats are manufactured at a plant that also uses wheat in the same machines, then the label cannot say gluten free! Who knew!
Several months ago, I cooked a few big pots of the old-fashioned oatmeal, then added a little salt, butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream or half and half. I divided it into several bowls and made apple cinnamon in one, peaches and cream in one, blueberry in one, and strawberry in one. I freeze dried each batch, then broke them into big chunks and put them in mason jars or mylar bags. I sealed them, and they will be breakfasts for years to come. These will also be great for camping. If I were eating them within a few months, I would add pecans and/or raisins. I was going more for long term storage. Thanks for the idea (credit to Bob's Red Mill, too) to add chia seeds! I must try the pineapple and coconut next time!
Walnuts with oats are yummy and nutritious. Thank you for all your videos. I’m new at canning and learning everything from you!
I have been having an oatmeal cup for the past week or so, not everyday, but enough to notice a decent drop in my morning blood glucose reading. I have used many recipes and canning hints from your channel. Thanks for all you do. (I was eating the prepared oatmeal packets and they didn't have the same effect)
I just love you Pam! You are so helpful,AND, funny! That slow and very stated “PERIOD” made me laugh😂! Thank you for all you and John do‼️❣️
I have done this for several years using small reusable plastic containers (hate single use plastic bags). Since I am vegetarian, I add nuts for the breakfast protein.
Thank you for this idea. They sound like they could be a good snack or even dessert at times. I’d try dates and nuts too.
Adding fruit juice or a milk (dairy or non dairy) instead of water levels it up so much! Flavor bomb!
I finally made mine! It tastes just like the packets. I only had ground chianti seeds on hand. I ate my test one plain. I have freeze dried peaches, apples, bananas, strawberries, and I bought myself some crasians. Thank you!
Oatmeal is very often cross contaminated with gluten depending on the facility where it is processed which can make Celiac sufferers ill. It is labeled gluten free because it is processed in a gluten free facility.
Then don't use it. Not rocket science.
@@kathymc234OP was responding to Roses comment in the vid
I did this when the kids were little. I always had 3 different types for them to choose from. I would make it in large containers and just have the measurements written on it. I think it was 1/3 cup of dry with 1/2 cup of hot water. I got the recipe from a food storage cookbook.
Oatmeal is often processed in mills and on equipment that also processes wheat. Therefore it may contain gluten, which can be very serious for someone with Celiac's disease or a wheat allergy. We appreciate that it is labelled gluten free. Bob's Red Mill has a dedicated gluten free facility to prevent cross contamination.
Thanks for the info.
Thank you for sharing this! This absolutely is an amazing idea! I will definitely have to give this a try! Raspberries, Blackberries, Triple Berries, etc. They all sound so delicious!
This is awesome! We are trying to get away from packaged foods and you have come along just in time. Thank you, thank you.
I add nuts to increase protein and add healthy fats. I've made banana walnut oatmeal and cranberry almond oatmeal. I don't add sugar as the fruit and powdered milk have sugar.
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing.
I always make oatmeal with milk instead of water. It winds up being a fruity-oatmeal-y mixture, because I'm always putting more fruit in! I've added dehydrated pumpkin powder, all sorts of dried or fresh fruit, etc. I love the idea of having some already measured up and ready to go, even though I don't have to leave home at 6 am for work anymore. I like to get a lot done in the morning. :)
I couldn't imagine learning from this, seemed so simple, I only watched because YOU are so careful and smart, I was curious.
Mind blown...this is amazingly delicious.
I never thought to pulverize the oats, and adding some whole oats, so yum!!!
Oh, my! I have those jars and lids. So easy, quick and healthy. TY! 🤗
Always helpful to make life simpler. We love raisins, walnuts & brown sugar. I can't resist a big pat of butter.Tks😊
You've done it again! I'm super stoked about this one!!! My oldest son LOVES oatmeal. His birthday is Halloween but we are celebrating it this next Saturday (Oct. 21, 2023). He & his family will be here for his supper he got to pick out and I'm going to give him this oatmeal concoction to take back home with him (he may have to share with his kids so I will give him plenty. Oh Pam & Jim........I wish I could express how much of a blessing/enlightenment you have been in my life. You get me sooooo EXCITED about doing stuff!!!!!! I also love when you take us on rides with you guys. You are going far beyond your scope of duties regarding facebook and I so love you guys for it. I see things I otherwise wouldn't get to see. I'm 72 and don't like to travel anymore ever since the bed bugs and come back and now I have to haul so many medical things with me that it's just not worth it to me. Not complaining, I'm completely happy doing what I do get to do......which is so much more than a lot of people even younger than me get to do. Okay, enuf. I could go on & on about you two but this is already probably more than you like to get into. Thank you again & don't EVER think we don't appreciate EVERYTHING you do for us. Love You!!!!!
Well, well, well. I want to THANK YOU for this video. I made this with my flaked oatmeal. I actually bought the jars and was curious about the pineapple/coconut combination-DELIGHTFUL. Thanks so much
Pam, this is a fabulous idea! Oatmeal is one of my favorites for breakfast. Can’t wait to try this method…….😊
Hope you enjoy!
Diced prunes are marvelous, and they have a significantly lower glycemic index than raisins. This fancy term means they mess with your sugar and insulin less than raisins do. That matters a whole lot for folks with diabetes or other reasons to mind their sugar handling. :-)
Plumaisins or “plum amazin raisins” is one brand already diced in a bag if you’d rather buy them than dice them. Try them also in cookies or wherever else you might have used raisins or craisins. Big hug from Wisconsin.
Thank you! I should probably talk more about the glycemic index in our videos!
I bought two cups from Amazon that also had two spoons. After I bought them I started seeing similar ones at the Dollar Tree.
You have made me so hungry with the pineapple and coconut comb. Thanks Pam & Jim.
I would make peaches and cream, plus pumpkin spice as things to add. Thank you for all you do and share.
I like this idea. I’ve only done it as overnight oats making up several days in advance. Yummy. Thank you.
This is so clever!! Thank you❤️ those cups prices are ridiculous. Such a way to save money on these. I would add the dehydrated fruit of course but some will have chocolate.
I cannot wait to make these!
You are so welcome! Jim
Thanks so much for this. I really love oatmeal but hate the processed stuff. It is way too mushy for me. I like some 'tooth' in my oatmeal so I only use old fashioned oats. I'll be making some of these for sure! My husband is not a breakfast person either so any breakfast foods are all mine. I would add nuts to mine. chopped pecans or slivered almonds!
At home, cooked, chopped bacon, toasted chopped pecans, toasted almonds. I’ve done this for years. Tonight, serendipity had my son and me discussing this very possibility for him to take to work.
I love this idea. Great for even kids, for breakfast before school. So many great add ins.
Last September we made these up! Mini marshmallow and chocolate chip was a fav. Almonds or walnuts and apples. Bananas and chocolate chips was good. Coconut and peaches went over well. We added powdered creamer to some and that was good. I prefer to make up the recipe per baggie instead of the bowl version. I found the milk/creamer and salt was not evenly dispersed. I am about to do up another set of baggies.
Sounds great! Jim
I just had old-fashioned oatmeal with blueberries and walnuts. It was delicious. I can't wait to make up mixes. These will be grat when camping. Thank you so much for this video.
❤ LOVE❤ I can't wait to make this! Wonderful warm breakfast for winter that is right around the corner!
Pam What a excellent experiment! Brilliant. I will be adding almonds. pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to mine with a touch of honey. Thank you so much for all you do!
I make old fashion oatmeal twice a week for me and my husband. I make it on the stovetop. We love it with almond milk, pure vanilla extract, cinnamon (no sugar) then I set a plate of fresh cut up fruit and nuts on the side for toppings. It’s such a hearty breakfast. Love this individual idea. Also the stainless steel appliance cleaners is an awesome idea. Great video. Thanks
Thanks for watching and for your comments!
Why not actual milk-cows or goats milk?
Missing out on lots of imp nutrients. Fat, protein, calcium & other bone building minerals.
This is right up my ally. These cups are a go-to in my pantry, but so expensive. Can't wait to do this
Thank you.
Welcome! Jim
This is great! I try to make as much homemade as possible, especially since there has been an increase in Bioengineered ingredients in things. I'd love more of these mixes/ideas. Maybe pancake mix or baking mix(like Jiffy or Bisquick), Brownie mix or cake/cookie mixes, ranch or seasonings, also really would liie to figure out a cream of mushroom for our Holiday tradition of Green bean casserole as now there is Bioengineered ingredients in it. Thanks for you great ideas!
Dehydrated fruits would work but how much liquid do you think we need to put in. Brilliant idea
Oh I love this! Oatmeal has been a favorite food of mine for many years (grits are a favorite as well), and I will confess that I do buy the Quaker box of packets that you can get at the grocery store. It will be so much fun to create my own oatmeal packets. Thank you so much!
I make this without the sugar you can also add a little honey. And I leave the oats in there original form, then just add some almond milk and put it in the fridge overnight. By morning it’s ready to eat nice and soft and thick. You don’t need to use hot water. It will thicken up as the night goes on ready for you to eat in the morning. And the Chia seeds thicken the mixture as well.
Those would be great for travel & camping
