Home-Made Oatmeal Packets

per snack bag:
1/3 c old-fashioned oats
1 tsp. sugar-free, french vanilla powdered creamer
pinch salt
2 tsp. brown sugar, or more to taste
1/8 tsp. cinnamon, or more to taste
Simply Apple Juice (found in the cold OJ section of the grocery store)

for apple-walnut (per bag):
chopped dried apples, craisins, walnuts (as much as you'd like to taste)

for blueberry (per bag):
dried blueberries, slivered almonds (as much as you'd like to taste)

To make the bags:
1. Make each bag individually, as opposed to making a big bowl of mix. This will ensure that each bag is identical, and doesn't miss out on some ingredients.
2. Place all your dry ingredients above into the bags, and store in the used oatmeal containers.
3. Use a mini muffin tin (or ice cube tray) to freeze cubes of the apple juice. For each bag, you'll need 1/4 cup of the juice. If using mini muffin tins, this works out to be two tins.

To make the oatmeal:
1. Empty the dry ingredients in a microwave-safe container. 2. Add two frozen apple juice cubes
3. Add 1/2 cup (or more if you like it soupy) water.
4. Microwave for 2 minutes
5. Let sit for 1 minute to thicken, stir, and eat!
