I love oatmeal!  How much?  Well, as a college athlete, for every game no matter how hot or cold the weather turned, I would eat oatmeal, blueberries, and a sprinkle of cinnamon for my pregame meal.  EVERY pregame meal!  After so many bowls, the substance does get tiring….doesn’t it?  For me, a way to amplify and change the texture of oatmeal is baking it.  I made my yummy baked oatmeal over the weekend and couldn’t wait to share the recipe with you!  Give it a try and you’ll be eating oatmeal just as often as I do!
