Ingredients
  • 2½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup nonfat milk
  • 3½ cups water
  • ½ cup seedless raisins
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons sugar-free maple syrup or 1½ tablespoons 100% maple syrup
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons dry roasted, unsalted cashews, roughly chopped, divided
  • 5 tablespoons dry roasted, unsalted almonds, roughly chopped, divided
Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the oats, milk, raisins, cinnamon, maple syrup, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats begin to soften and the liquid thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the nuts.
  3. In each of 5 containers spoon 1 cup of the oatmeal. Top with 2 tablespoons of the nut mixture.
  4. To store: Cover each container and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, place in the microwave, uncovered, for 60 to 90 seconds. Add a splash of water or milk, if needed. To freeze, place covered in the freezer for up to 2 months. To defrost, place in the refrigerator overnight. To reheat, place in the microwave, uncovered, for 60 to 90 seconds. Add a splash of water or milk, if needed.
