• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 3 tablespoons sugar

Instructions:

* Cooking Time: 7 to 9 minutes Power: 70% (490 watts) Standing Time: 2 minutes total Place a double thickness of cupcake paper liners in each of six microwave muffin cups or 6- ounce custard cups.

1. Place oats in a blender container. Cover and blend with on-off bursts until coarsely chopped.
