Baked Oatmeal

My mom used to say that as soon as my feet hit the floor I wanted to eat. I'm still the same way. When I get up in the morning or afternoon on my day off I need to eat. Mornings for me are rough so I try to find easy breakfast ideas. Ones that I can grab and run to work with. I found this on My Kitchen Cafe. I'm not a huge fan of oatmeal but this sounded and looked really good. I tweaked it to be more WW friendly. To get the original recipe just click on the link above. Next time I will halve this because I'm the only one eating it and a 9X13 pan is a lot of oatmeal. But this was really good even with the tweaking. Since it was baked it had a chewy, crunchy texture but I really liked that. I added milk and bananas. I think this would be good with any fruit. It reheated well.
