I am the only one in my family that doesn't like oatmeal, even though I know I should. I'm thinking that if I tried it this way, I might actually be able to eat it!

Oh, my gosh! A guy I worked with when I lived in NYC used to make this when we'd have brunch at work. I never thought to ask him for the recipe. I LOVE this stuff! Thanks for posting this. I will probably make some tomorrow!

I enjoy the solitude of cooking. It is like a science experiment. I'm in my lab mixing ingredients together. And making tasty food, hopefully.
Oat meal, my mother's style, was always lumpy. She could burn water. I only discovered my excitement for oatmeal when I had a bowl in a little bed & breakfast place in Ireland twenty five years ago. Ever since then I relish oatmeal. But this recipe for "Baked Oatmeal" is a delectable departure from all of the others. I like the idea of the whipped cream on top. I plan on putting the concept of "Baked Oatmeal" in my next novel. After all, the location will be the British Isles.
I suggest that you make breakfast exciting. Do a baked oatmeal. It's like a dessert.
