Baked Oatmeal

I wanted to start eating oatmeal more so I thought I'd try something new.  This recipe from MyRecipes sounded good so I decided to try it.  It didn't disappoint!

Baked Oatmeal

Try baked oatmeal for a unexpected morning treat. It's a mix between an oatmeal bar and traditional creamy breakfast oatmeal.
