  1. In a large bowl, add 6 cups of instant oats, powdered milk, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. Put 4 cups of oats in a blender and blend until they're powdery, stopping a few times to shake (if needed). Transfer the oats from the blender to a large bowl and mix with the oats and other ingredients.
  3. Measure ½ cup of the oatmeal mixture and place it inside a zip bag. Repeat the process with the remaining mixture to fill all 20 bags.

Storage:
