Chocolate-Peanut Butter Oatmeal

"In Canada we have a chocolate bar called "Crispy Crunch", and this is what I call this oatmeal in my house. It has protein, soluble fiber, and great taste."

  • 12 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon natural chunky peanut butter

directions

  • Combine the hot chocolate mix and oat flakes.
  • Add the water, stir, and microwave for approximately one minute on high.
  • Stir well, and add the peanut butter. This will melt into the oatmeal as you continue to stir.
  • I eat it without adding milk, but that is up to you.

  1. Very chocolatey! Yum, with or without the peanut butter. I made with milk and on the hob.
     
  2. I used quick oatmeal. And I cooked it another minute in the microwave. It's so yummy. I used a small envelop of hot chocolate powder. Thanks Sweet Baboo :) Made for PRMR tag game
     
  3. Made for DH this morning and he loved it stating "taste like peanut butter brownie batter" Made as written using dark hot chocolate powder. Thanks for the post.
     
  4. Excellent with a few adjustments, including addition of cinnamon, brown sugar, and oatmeal, and subtract half the cocoa.
     
  5. I made this using recipe#333251 in place of the hot chocole mix. Also used almond butter in place of chunky p.b. Not that I don't love p.b....I just wanted to see if almond butter added a different take. (Next time I"ll stick with the p.b.) I've made chocolate oatmeal b/f using cocoa powder and so using the hot chocolate mix was different for me too. It really does add a different and unique taste to the oatmeal. Really tasty and one I will definitely repeat. Thanks Sweet~ Made for PRMR!

  1. this is great! I used cocoa powder instead of hot chocolate mix because I ran out of it, so I added 2 tbs of brown sugar (I prefer my oatmeal sweet) and used milk instead of water. Perfect! Tasted like oatmeal chocolate cake, in a liquidy version :D thanks for the recipe!
     
  2. This was good and easy to make in the morning. I followed the recipe as written other then I used milk instead of water and I cut back on the milk since others stated the mixture was running and I don't care for my oatmeal runny. We eat a lot of oatmeal so will be making this again.
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>For someone as outgoing as I am, it is astounding that I have been unable to do something as seemingly simple as filling out my home page, so consider this draft one...(or would that be daft one??)... <br /> <br />I am blessed to live an ordinary life, have family that I dearly love, get great reward from volunteer work, and have the luxury of indulging in far too much time cooking and reading about food. I am a retired nurse and have been married to a really wonderful man for 37 years. I am a happy person, and my life is very satisfying, but somehow I can't translate the essence of ME into words, as some on Zaar have done so well. <br />I particularly enjoy reading reviews, and the Q&amp;A forum for all the expert and generous advice that the members share. <br />Since joining Zaar, I rarely use my extensive cookbook library...this is one terrific site. <br /> <br /><img src=http://www.satsleuth.com/cooking/Swap14.JPG alt= /></p>
