jellies, crushed sweet biscuits (like graham wafers) and mini chocolate chips(you could use mini marshmallows instead of jellies for a s’mores version!)
Combine rolled oats, milk and water in a medium saucepan.
Add sugar and salt. Mix well. Bring to a boil.
Lower heat to a simmer. Cook (uncovered) until creamy and oats are softened, about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, cover and let ret rest for around 2 minutes.
Spoon the porridge into 8 (4 ounce) shot glasses or small jars, leaving some room for the toppings.
Serve the porridge shots with the topping options above (or use your kids' favorite toppings!). There will be 2 shot glasses for each porridge topping. Kids can pick and choose their porridge. This is a fun way to get kids to eat their breakfast!
Notes
Nutrition information does not include the toppings for this recipe since there are different variations and amounts.*You can use whatever size shot glasses or jars you like, but make sure they are wide enough to fit a teaspoon into them (or get some mini spoons). I do not recommend plastic, as the porridge is served warm.**The porridge shots taste best if served immediately. But if you do end up having leftovers, cover the jars and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 5 days, depending on the toppings. Oatmeal is reheatable and you can add a bit more liquid to loosen it up as well.
