Cheater'S Oatmeal Pudding

Be the first to rate this recipe

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 (4 ounce) container prepared sugar-free vanilla pudding (Like a Snack Pack, or Jello. I use sugar-free, feel free to use regular!)
  • 1/8 teaspoon almond extract
  • Splenda sugar substitute, to taste (optional)
  • chopped almonds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine oats and water in a deep microwaveable bowl (very deep to prevent spilling over).
  2. Microwave on high for 5 minutes, or less if your microwave is strong. Let sit in microwave for about 2-3 minutes after it's done to let it thicken up (this is important).
  3. Remove oats from microwave. Stir in pudding, extract, and sweetener.
  4. Microwave for about 30 more seconds to re-warm.
  5. Sprinkle with almonds if desired.
  6. NOTE - I have NOT tried this using quick-cooking oats, I'm not sure how that would taste. Also, you can really cook the oats however you want, just make sure that they are thick before you add the pudding. I have a slow microwave, so 5 minutes is how long mine takes.
