Oatmeal Breakfast on the Run

If you are in a rush in the morning, I have the perfect grab and go hot breakfast for you. It’s some oatmeal that you take with you to work or school in a thermos. It works great for my family. We have a hard time eating first thing in the morning, but enjoy this breakfast an hour or so into our day.

Oatmeal Breakfast on the Run

  • 1/4 C steel cut oats
  • 1 1/2 C boiling water
  • 1/4 C dried fruit

At night, right before you go to bed, pour the oats into the thermos and add the boiling water.  Place the lid on the thermos and seal tight.

In the morning drain off any excess water and stir in the dried fruit. Replace the lid and go.

You can use old fashioned oats or quick oats in this recipe but don’t try instant oats. Add a little milk, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon or butter for a different taste.
