Piggybacking on this
The contents of your saddle bag should include:
• Mini-pump or C02 inflator with a couple extra cartridges (your preference).
• Spare tube (make sure the valve is long enough for your rims)
• Tire levers (The pedros ones are the best imo). You can make do with 1, but you should really carry 2.
• Patch kit (park tool makes nice self-adhesive ones)
• A multi-tool with hex keys, a phillips head, T25 Torx wrench, and a chain tool (the chain tool is sort of optional, but it's good to have just in case).
• A $20 bill. A 20 is useful in case you need to buy something, and in an emergency can also be placed between the tube and the inside of the tire to temporarily prevent your tube from bubbling out if you get a big gash in the tire.
• Valve extenders (Only if you have deep section rims, you'll need these if you ever have to borrow a tube from someone on the road)
• A ziploc bag for your cell phone in case it rains. Protip, put the $20 in the ziploc.
• If you have room, a package of peanut butter crackers or an extra gel/energy bar. If you bonk on a ride, you'll be happy to remember you have some extra food in your bag.
For me the absolute minimum is a tyre lever (or two), patches, self adhesive are nice and easy as well as small and a pump or CO2. Anything else is a bonus, like a multi-tool, spare tube (you could substitute this for the patch kit, but it takes more room), chain quick link, cable ties, etcetera.
