To prepare, empty one packet into a bowl. Add about 2/3 cup of boiling water or milk. Stir well and let it stand for one to two minutes, or until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency. You can also prepare it in the microwave by combining the packet contents with water or milk in a microwave-safe bowl and heating on high for 60 to 90 seconds, stirring halfway through. Adjust liquid for a thinner or thicker texture.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to steel-cut oats or rolled oats that require longer cooking times on the stovetop, instant oatmeal is pre-cooked and dried, allowing for much faster preparation. The added flavors of apple and cinnamon are pre-mixed, offering a consistent taste without needing to add fresh fruit or spices.
