Looking for a grain free instant oatmeal? My recipe for Instant Cinnamon “Oatmeal” is one of the most popular recipes on my site and for good reason…..it’s delicious! I ended up coming up with some other flavor combinations: 1) Raspberries and Cream “Oatmeal” which is in my ebook, Awaken (check it out here) and the recipe below for “Brown Sugar” N’oatmeal (Get it? No oats!). Back in my carb and grain eating days, oatmeal was always an easy breakfast when I was in a hurry so having a grain free instant “oatmeal” option is a really nice change of pace to my usual breakfast of meat and veggies. What I love about this recipe is that you can make the dry mix up ahead of time and just make servings as needed. I like to throw one serving of the dry mix into a mason jar and add some hot water when I get to work. What an easy breakfast! And the smell (and taste) transports me back to the days of eating a warm bowl of brown sugar oatmeal.
