Title: James Baldwin's NO cook oatmeal recipe
Post by: CharlieJ on May 09, 2014, 09:07:31 AM
Jim ME and I were talking about this on the chat last night- here it is. I've tried it several times, and I like it, particularly when  you are under way. Nothing needs refrigeration.

I usually skip the nutmeg myself

Oatmeal (serves one)

1/3 cup oatmeal (instant or rolled)
2 rounded tbsp nonfat milk powder
1 cup water (more or less)
1 sliced banana or other fruit or 3 tbsp raisons
1/2 tsp cinnamon
dash of grated nutmeg
2 rounded tbsp Grape Nuts-type cereal (or substitute homemade granola or broken crackers)

Mix oatmeal with milk powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add air temp water and soak for five minutes (soak longer if you use rolled oats or add heated water on a cold morning). Add fruit or raisons. Immediately before serving add Grape Nuts cereal or its substitute to improve texture.

I do something similar on the road, but I use almond milk rather than water; even cold out of my fridge cooler.  I use oats, raisins and or banana, and cinnamon sugar. Occasionally with grape nuts type cereal as well.
