Ingredients

  • 1.33 cup rolled oats
  • 4 Tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 4 Tbsp hulled hemp seeds
  • 2 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch salt*
  • 2.67 cup water, milk, or non-dairy milk
  • sweetener of choice
  • Optional fresh add-ins: fresh fruit, nuts, peanut butter, jam, maple syrup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Divide dry ingredients between four containers (zip-top bags, reusable plastic containers, or glass containers with lids). About 1/3 cup oats, 1 Tbsp flaxseed, 1 Tbsp hemp seeds, 1/2 Tbsp chia seeds, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch of salt for each. If you are using a dry sweetener, like sugar, brown sugar, or stevia, you can add them to the dry mix. Store in a cool dry place indefinitely.
  2. To prepare the oats hot, add 2/3 cup water, milk, or non-dairy milk and stir to combine. Microwave on high for one minute, stir, then microwave in 30 second intervals until thickened. Let the seeded oats sit at room temperature for about 2 minutes to thicken further. Add in any extra items (fresh fruit, peanut butter, syrup, etc.) just before serving.
  3. To prepare cold oats, add 2/3 cup water, milk, or non-dairy milk, stir to combine, then refrigerate for 8 hours or up to 3-4 days. Stir in any fresh add-ins just before serving.

Notes

  • Adding a pinch of salt to oatmeal is a game changer. It really punches up the flavors and makes the oats seem very rich.
