About The Recipe
This is definitely one of my favorite things to have for breakfast. It’s sweet without being too sweet, its fruity, nutty, with just a little dash of cinnamon. It’s seriously a great way to get fruit down and have a delicious and healthy breakfast for the whole family.
To be honest, I have always loved oatmeal. It’s one of my absolute favorite breakfast foods because it truly is SO versatile.
You can bake it, you can make actual oatmeal, you can make overnight oats, muffins…
It even makes one of my favorite cookies on the entire planet.
