Coconut Pumpkin Swirl Baked Oatmeal
I apologize for the freakishly long name of this oatmeal. I normally try to avoid lengthy titles like that, but I couldn’t resist. This is what this oatmeal had to be named.
This oatmeal was inspired by a wonderful experience at Amazing Thailand in Minneapolis, MN. Thai is one of my favorite cuisines, despite the fact that I only discovered it recently! At this particular restaurant, I ordered pineapple fried rice, but my friend ordered pumpkin-coconut curry. I was shocked at how delicious the combination was, and I’ve wanted to try it in oatmeal ever since.
Apple Nut Butter Baked Oatmeal
My favorite snack ever is apples and peanut butter. I don’t understand why people put caramel on apples. Gross! Peanut butter is ten times better.
So naturally, I really liked this oatmeal. Normally, I would just title this “Apple Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal.” However, I went all out this week and bought ALMOND BUTTER for the first time! What a great combination! Still, I have absolutely no doubt that peanut butter would be magical, if not better than the almond butter. 🙂 (more…)
Strawberry Banana Baked Oatmeal
One month! I’ve officially completed one month as a full-time tutor. Yippee!
Six weeks ago (when I came for training), the idea of eating baked oatmeal every morning was so dreadful. I’m not a fan of changing routines, and stove-top oatmeal was definitely the routine! However, recipes like this (and THIS) make baked oatmeal such a delight.

German Chocolate Baked Oatmeal
I did it! I did it! I’ve been pondering this recipe for months, and it’s finally a reality! Last week, I referenced my list of oatmeal recipes and how many of them were more ambitious, and I was too lazy to attempt them. This was one of those recipes.
Once I figured out the missing piece of the equation (the all-important coconut-pecan frosting), I couldn’t wait to try it out. The other day, I finally did it. (more…)
Neapolitan Baked Oatmeal
As I typed out this recipe, I couldn’t help but feel depressed. That is because I may be peaking as an oatmeal blogger. I’m not sure if I can ever top this one:
This recipe, you see, is so elaborate, well thought-out, and mouth-wateringly delicious that I’m not even going to bother posting the instructions for a single serving. It’s way too much work for one serving, and it’s way too delicious to not share (or, if you’re like me, eat every morning for a week).

Blueberry Trail Mix Baked Oatmeal
I dislike only posting twice a week. I was pretty happy with those few weeks back in August and early September when I was able to pump out three recipes each week. Now, I seem to be in a tiny rut.
One problem is that I eat the same baked oatmeal every morning. I have come to really enjoy this system as it allows me to sleep in a little later than I would if I had to cook my oatmeal on the stove every single day. Plus, it gives me a nice weekend project to look forward to. My roommates are always interested in what my “oatmeal of the week” will be, so that’s motivating as well. Unfortunately, that means I’m not trying out a new recipe every single morning. (more…)
Peanut Butter Cookie Baked Oatmeal
I am a terrible conversationalist. When I have stories to tell, I find myself lost in conversation with someone, but when it comes to small talk, there’s no hope for me. In these types of situations, if no one says anything for a couple of minutes, I clear my throat and say:
“What are your three favorite types of cookies? Go!”
Initially, people give me an odd look. Or they ask why. Or they say, “I don’t know.” Eventually, however, they get sucked in to the infinite awesomeness of my go-to game. Within twenty minutes, I have them listing their favorite color combinations, U.S. cities to visit, car models, NFL teams, and ethnic cuisines. (more…)
PB&J Baked Oatmeal
I love peanut butter and jelly so much, it hurts. [/cliche]
During the first week of school last week, I ended up filling out a couple different get-to-know-you surveys that asked for my favorite food. I first wrote down “oatmeal,” but then I scratched it out and wrote “grilled PB&J sandwich.” As it turns out, that’s a foreign concept to a lot of people. What a shame. (more…)

Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal
As a planner, I’m always thinking ahead. Far ahead. I’ve already started looking at my options for Thanksgiving, my absolute favorite holiday. My roommate offered to let me spend it with her and her family. My very first question was, “Will there be pumpkin pie?”
I don’t ask much from my Thanksgiving meals. All I request is pumpkin pie…and at least one green vegetable. 🙂

Apple Pie Baked Oatmeal
I never saw it coming, but…
I’m starting to like baked oatmeal. I stopped incessantly craving stove-top oats and started truly appreciating the baked version. I suppose that’s a good thing since that’s what I’m stuck with right now.
