Maple Spice Instant Oatmeal (dairy, soy, nut, gluten free)

• 1/3 cup plain quick-cooking oats

• 1 teaspoon ground flax seed

• 1-2 teaspoons maple sugar

• 1/2 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice

• 1 pinch sea salt

• 1/4 cup raisins or Craisins (optional)

• 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds (optional)

Combine all ingredients in a heat-safe bowl or mug, and add 1 cup of water just off the boil. Cover the container, and let the oatmeal cook for 1-2 minutes. Mix well before eating. Can top with non-dairy creamer, if desired.

To prepare ahead, combine all ingredients in a tightly sealed food storage baggie. Transfer to your heat-safe container before adding hot water to cook.
