Just Peachy Freezer Oatmeal Cups
This is a versatile recipe which can be modified to suit your preferences. Frozen oatmeal can be transported from freezer to bowl for a hearty morning breakfast! I prefer using evaporated milk for extra creaminess, but you can use regular milk or a mixture of water and milk.
