If you’re looking for an easy and cheap way to make oatmeal taste good in the microwave, you’ve come to the right place.
This is the recipe that I use almost every single morning and it works like a charm.
I use the smallest pinch of brown/sugar stevia mix which is around 5 calories and ~1g of sugar.

If you’d prefer to stick to whole foods you can use a sliced up banana before putting it in the microwave.
If you want/need a higher calorie breakfast, you can use the optional peanut butter or any other nut butter you like.
Blueberry Flax Easy Oatmeal
- 2/3 Cup Quick Oats or Rolled Oats
- 1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed
- 1/2 Cup Frozen or Fresh Blueberries
- 1/2 Cup Soy Milk (Unsweetened)
- 1 tsp Brown Sugar/Stevia Blend (or use whole banana)
- 1 tsp Cinnamon to Garnish
- 1 tbsp Natural Peanut Butter (Optional)
- 1 Whole Banana Peeled and Sliced (Optional)
- Add the oats to a bowl and put just enough water to cover them completely.
- Place the bowl of oats and water into the microwave for 2 minutes. If using a banana and not brown sugar/stevia blend then place the sliced banana inside as well.
- Once the oatmeal is out of the microwave, add all of the other dry ingredients on top. Add peanut butter for extra calories if desired.
- Add the soy milk and then mix until you reach the desired consistency.
