INSTANT OATMEAL PACKET COOKIES

Instant Oatmeal Packet Cookies image

Everyone seems to have a box of instant oatmeal packets hiding in their pantry or kitchen, sadly forgotten. While they make a quick breakfast, a lot of people get tired of the same old flavors of everyday oatmeal. Rather than throwing away money and letting oatmeal packets become trashcan bound, I try to re-purpose them. Instant oatmeal packets aren't just for breakfast, they also make wonderful, chewy oatmeal cookies unlike any other. This recipe is great because you can mix and match different combinations of oatmeal packet flavors together to create a different cookie every time. My favorites are the Maple & Brown Sugar mixed with Apples and Cinnamon, or Strawberries and Cream with Blueberries and Cream.

1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
1 tablespoon milk
1 egg

Use 6 Packets Of Instant Oatmeal (can use all one flavor, or different combinations) For some reason not letting me put this with the ingredient list sorry
Preheat oven to 350°. Beat softened butter with the white sugar and brown butter until smooth and creamy, then beat in the milk and egg until smooth. Meanwhile, stir the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. Gently mix in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until evenly blended. Mix in the nuts or raisins (if using).
Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2-inches apart on prepared baking sheets, flattening the tops of the cookie dough until they're about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are light brown and crispy on the edges. Cool on baking sheets 2 minutes. Place on cooling rack to cool completely.
Makes about 15-18 cookies.

PICK A FLAVOR OATMEAL PACKET COOKIES

Pick a Flavor Oatmeal Packet Cookies image

Last year I became addicted to those sugary little pre-sweetened flavored oatmeal packets and loaded up. In an attempt to make some room in my cabinet for other things, I made up this recipe. I used Honey Nut packets, but you can use French Vanilla, Maple & Brown Sugar or whatever your favorite "packet" happens to be. These cookies are puffy, cakey and not overly sweet.

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 large egg
6 (43 g) packets honey & nut quick-cooking oatmeal (or other sweet flavored)
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsel
1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Beat together margarine, brown sugar and egg.
In a separate bowl, combine oatmeal, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
Stir oat mixture into margarine mixture and mix until well combined.
Stir in yogurt to make a thick batter.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are golden around edges.

Tips:

Use a variety of oatmeal flavors to create different cookie flavors. Try apple cinnamon, brown sugar, maple brown sugar, blueberry muffin, peaches and cream, and more.
Be sure to measure the oatmeal correctly. Too much oatmeal will make the cookies dry and crumbly, while too little will make them too soft and chewy.
Don't overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Pick a flavor oatmeal packet cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With a variety of oatmeal flavors to choose from, you can create cookies that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
