I just made this and topped it with strawberries and walnuts. nom nom nom! I think honey and blueberries would be amazing but I forgot to buy blueberries 🙂 thank you for sharing!
I'm glad you liked it Beth! Blueberries and honey would be amazing 🙂
Very tasty! I have a cold this morning and really wanted oatmeal, so I pulled this recipe up from pinterest and gave it a try. Not an every day thing (too much sugar) but hits the spot when nothing but a hot bowl of oatmeal sounds good. I put a handful of fresh raspberries on top for a little tart contrast.
Vian I am glad you liked it! Hope you feel better soon! I agree this isn't an every day dish… but once in a while a little sweetness for breakfast never hurt anyone 🙂
