Overnight Mason Jar Oatmeal
In the Louisiana hot months, most of us hate to cook. Here is a recipe that takes the heat out of hot cereal and makes it scrumptious and healthy.
Ingredients:
| 1 glass mason jar |
| 1 cup of rolled oats (instant or not) |
| 2 cups of favorite milk (low fat, almond, coconut, rice, etc.) |
| 1 tbsp. of maple syrup |
| 1 tsp. of vanilla |
| 1 tsp. of cinnamon |
| 1 tsp. of ground ginger |
| 1 tsp. of ground nutmeg |
| Additional: any dried or fresh cut fruit, fresh berries, nuts, or other ingredients you wish to mix before serving |
Instructions:
| 1 | Add all ingredients (except additional ingredients) and mix well by shaking or stirring within the mason jar. Seal the lid on tight and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. |
| 2 | In the morning when you are ready to eat the oatmeal will become a pudding like porridge. Add your additional ingredients and stir well. Best served cold on a hot summer day. |
