Easy Recipe for Instant Oatmeal – Chocolate Chip
My kids eat this on a regular basis in the morning, and it is so EASY and QUICK!
I make the recipe in bulk and store it in this 2.4qt OXO Good Grips container. If you have clicked on the recipe, then you may have seen that I do not mix the chocolate chips into the oatmeal mixture but I sprinkle them on top with each serving.
This is just to stretch the chocolate out and to control how much goes in each bowl. Because the chocolate melts into the oatmeal, my kids actually don’t require any brown sugar to be mixed in resulting in less sugar than a bowl of most cereals.
You certainly can add brown sugar as needed though. and you can also add some ground flax.
There are so many health benefits to flax including fiber (digestive health), Omega-3 Fatty Acids (cardiovascular health & skin/hair/nails), and lignans (phytonutrients).
I sneak this into just about everything I make!
Use gluten-free quick oats if desired to keep the recipe gluten-free.
