Microwave Apple Pie Oatmeal

"I came up with this recipe after eating Recipe#58447. I was out of bananas, and was really wanting a warm, comforting bowl of oatmeal that could be made quickly. I already had a can of lite no sugar added apple pie filling that had been opened, so I thought I'd give it a try. If you want it to be a sweet as pie, you might want to add some brown sugar instead of or in addition to the sweetener. Feel free to add raisins if you like them (I don't) and to add to or take away from the spices."

  1. I was hoping to love this. I don't know if it was the lite apple pie filling, or what, but it seemed to lack flavor. I might try making it with regular pie filling next time. It's a great idea, I just couldn't get very excited about it. Thanks anyway.
     
  2. Absolutely fantastic oatmeal! I didn't have pumpkin pie spice, so I made my own using a mixture of cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and ginger. I didn't have ground cloves either, so I just left it out... I don't think I like them anyway! I did use the salt, and water instead of the skim milk. I used a packet of Quaker Organic instant oatmeal. The only thing I'd do differently next time is chop up the apple more finely than I did. Thanks for posting!!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

The joy of my life are my 2 sons, born in Dec. 00 and Jan. 04. I am currently a stay at home mom and love to make homemade meals and treats for my family. I live in PA, but the rest of my family are in AL and GA, and my boys and I spend weeks at a time in the South. I enjoy traveling with my husband and 2 sons. I am an Auburn University Alumni and a HUGE Auburn Tigers fan...WAR EAGLE! From August until November, you know what I'll be doing on Saturdays...watching ANY NCAA game on TV. I am also a fan of NASCAR. I have only been to 2 tracks, Talladega several times and Dover once, but I hope to visit many more. Pocono is only an hour away, so maybe someday! Atlanta is another real possibility with family close by. My furbaby Wickett (a pekinese-poodle mix I had for almost 14 years) went to live at the Rainbow Bridge on April 4, 2007. He was literally my first born child! He will always be in my heart. We have a new dog now, Roxie, who is a Shih-tzu. I am an animal lover, and will always have a pet! <img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj240/marienixon_715/kittencaljpg.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%203/ZWT3-Participation.gif"> <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/222/511934835_9dc466e9a4_o.gif"> <img src="http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b158/bella_donata/My%20Art/Recipezaar/RedWhiteBlue.jpg" border="0" alt="Made by Bella14ragazza">
