Creamy Peanut Butter & Jam Oatmeal

Recipe #111280 | 2 min | 1 min prep | add private note

If you love peanut butter, and are willing to try anything, I think you'll like this. I didn't like oatmeal, and I needed to find a way to start eating it. So I decided to be daring one morning, and I'm so glad I was! I love oatmeal now! I have this for breakfast EVERY day! It is perfect with a cup of coffee, and an awesome bed-time snack. Mmmmm! For me it's just oh so good! 30 cal-jam 70 cal-peanut butter 113 cal- oatmeal

Made for "Tag It Red!" I actually have now had this twice for breakfast. The first time I made it as written and thought that the peanut butter flavor was a little too much. The second time I made this, I reduced the peanut butter by half and it was much better. Thanks for posting this Little Italy ~ I'll be making it often for breakfast since I love PB&J.

    Good. Quick and easy to make before running to work...nice for those cold mornings. Have used both raspberry and strawberry jams on different occasions - both are good. Sometimes add a dash of cinnamon. Will try with banana next time as one reviewer suggested.

    I gave this 5 stars. My family loved this! It taste just like a PB&J sandwich. I served this for what my niece and newphew call big breakfast Sunday. We had this oatmeal with Baked French Toast Casserole With Maple Syrup, maple flavored sausage, and coffe/orange juice. I change the recipe a bit. I used grape jelly as that is what I had on hand. I have made this many more times since having it for our big breakfast with 4 Tsp of jelly and 3 is enough 4 over rides the peanut butter and it taste best with 3 tsp. And yet I've had to change this recipe a bit more. I now use all natural peanut butter. Sugar free jelly (any flavor I have). Plus I have it wrote on my card (must of came from here) that "If using old fashioned oats add 45 seconds plus 1 tsp jam or more. Just make sure you use a regular cereal bowl or this will grow all over your microwave. Also my card states to use bananas with the peanut butter. Yum maybe tomorrow. Thanks for posting a yummy recipe! Christine (internetnut)

    I'm a true oatmeal lover and enjoy trying different ways to prepare it. This was a pretty tasty version! I did modify it for my taste a bit using only 1 tbl. crunchy peanut butter and the full 3 tsp. of jam (strawberry). Thanks for posting
