I should admit something: I've never loved oatmeal. Other than being more of a savory breakfast person, I think it's a texture thing... oatmeal is so warm and mushy. The words "warm and mushy" put together cause me to make a face. I would demonstrate but you can't see me. However, I recently came across a recipe for Baked Chocolate Chip Cookie Oatmeal and those words put together perked me right up. And guess what? I'm a convert. This oatmeal tastes like a warm, gooey, slightly under-baked chocolate chip cookie, straight from the oven. Yet, it's not overly sweet or sugary and still looks/feels like a traditional baked breakfast oatmeal. In short, it's amazing.
With minimal steps and ingredients you could easily make this any given morning, but it's special enough to serve for a breakfast gathering. I'm highly recommending it... you should see my face.
Recipe here.
Do you think this could be made without the egg?? My son has a severe egg allergy.
ReplyDeleteSo good!! You had me at 'you probably have all the ingredients on hand.' Perfect for this rainy Seattle day.
