Ingredients
-
5 cup water
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
2 cup regular rolled oats
-
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
-
1 tablespoon butter
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
½ cup dried cranberries or tart cherries, raisins, and/or snipped dried apricots or pitted whole dates
-
1 cup fresh blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and/or chopped strawberries
-
½ cup chopped toasted almonds, walnuts, and/or pecans

Milk (optional)
Directions
-
In a medium saucepan bring the water and salt to boiling; stir in oats. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally (mixture will be very thin). Remove from heat. Stir in brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Transfer to a bowl; cover and chill until cool (mixture will thicken as it cools). Stir in dried fruit.
-
Grease twelve 2 1/2-inch muffin cups. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the oatmeal into each prepared muffin cup. Sprinkle with fresh berries and nuts; press lightly. Cover and freeze 6 hours or until firm.
-
Let stand at room temperature 5 minutes. Transfer oatmeal cups to freezer bags or airtight containers. Freeze up to 3 months.
-
To serve, in a small bowl microwave one frozen oatmeal cup at a time, covered, 2 minutes or until heated through, stirring once. Stir before serving. If desired, stir in milk.
