I have always enjoyed eating oats for breakfast, but I have never made baked oats because I did not have the time and patience to wait 20 minutes before devouring the breakfast I have been dreaming about since the night before. Now that it is summer, I can allot more time to prepare and enjoy a hearty meal early in the morning.
Since this is my first attempt at what some may consider art, I went with a very simple recipe with ingredients I already had at home. And since this kitchen adventure was so successful that I was able to do it only half awake, I look forward to experimenting with so many more baked oatmeal flavors throughout this summer.
