This has become one of my favorite breakfast items, its nutritious and very filling. It only takes about 30 minutes and could easily be meal prepped if you have busy mornings. You can substitute the fruit with any of your favorites, I recommend trying peaches, bananas, pears, and strawberries. I used natural cane sugar but if you don’t have that just use maple syrup or brown sugar. This recipe is for one serving but if you’re making this recipe for a crowd, easily multiply he ingredients by how many servings. I hope you try this recipe for yourself and make it your own!
My mom used to always add roasted apples into our oatmeal for breakfast and it was always sooo good. The other day I wanted to experiment and try it with some mixed berries I had in the freezer, I knew it was going to work but was unsure about how good it was going to taste. First try, it was delicious even though I added way too much sugar. So I decided to make it again for my family on a beach vacation but instead I used fresh apples and blueberries. In conclusion, you can’t mess this recipe up. You can substitute the fruit with any of your favorites, I recommend trying peaches, bananas, pears, and strawberries. I used natural cane sugar but if you don’t have that just use maple syrup or brown sugar.
