Frozen Oatmeal Cubes
Creamy cinnamon and maple porridge cooked once, frozen in jumbo cubes and reheated straight from frozen with a splash of milk.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats 180 g
- 4 cups milk 950 ml
- 2 tbsp maple syrup 30 ml
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon 2 g
- 1/4 tsp salt 1 g
Instructions
- Add the rolled oats, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon and salt to a saucepan.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until thick and creamy, about 15 minutes.
- Let it cool. Divide the oatmeal evenly between silicone cube cavities.
- Freeze until solid, about 4 hours. Pop the cubes out and transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container.
- To reheat, place the cubes in a small saucepan with 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk per 2 cubes and heat over low heat, stirring occasionally and adding more milk as needed.
Notes
Nutrition values are an estimate, per cube. Freeze time is about 4 hours, or until solid. Freeze completely before removing from the tray, then store in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 2 months. Microwave: place 1 to 2 cubes in a bowl with 2 to 4 tbsp (30 to 60 ml) milk and heat for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring halfway. Stovetop: add 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk per 2 cubes and heat over low heat, stirring occasionally. Add more milk as needed. Most children enjoy 1 to 2 cubes; older kids and adults 2 to 4.
