Today I have a delicious idea for breakfast that I know you are going to love – Morning Glory Baked Oatmeal.

I am not a fan of those instant oatmeal packets ever since I first made baked oatmeal.  I love that you can essentially whip up the oatmeal, pour it in a baking dish and the oven does all of the hard work. 

Most of the ingredients I already had in my pantry, essentially just picking up some carrots and apples.  I used my favorite finely shredded unsweetened coconut and dried cherries and in lieu of oil, I used unsweetened applesauce which carried the apple flavor throughout.  I also added some flaxseed for a bit of added nutritional punch.  Taste-wise, this is somewhat of a fusion between carrot cake and apple pie but in baked oatmeal form.  This recipe is a huge hit in my household and I love that I can make it on a Sunday and heat up any leftovers during the week.

When you are looking for the perfect recipe to start the day, whip up this Morning Glory Baked Oatmeal and watch it disappear – quickly!
