This looks simply amazing and I can’t believe how easy it is to make! Looks like I might have a new breakfast to try this weekend (if Wisconsin decides to restock the grocery stores anytime soon, that is!).
It’s cold in Wisco too! I think it’s suppose to warm up over the weekend in Minne…that means it’s coming your way!
Wow, this recipe looks like it would be complex with the fancy “cinnamon leche” but I love how few ingredients are in here!! Totally making this this weekend 🙂
I realized that I didn’t even use real milk. But I liked the name leche so I kept it. No one’s called me out yet 🙂
cinnamon leche sauce?! too good to be true 🙂
It’s true!!!
Did you use a specific type of oatmeal when making this recipe? Is one better than another? I’ve only ever tried the Quaker Oats pre-packaged apple cinnamon oatmeal, and I don’t think that would work in this recipe. I appreciate the help and look forward to trying the recipe.
Thank you!
Hey Kelly! I just used normal rolled oats. You can use the kind by Quaker, oats from the bulk section, or any other brand! They are just plain…nothing is added to the grain 🙂 Good luck!
Wow this looks amazing! I need to get your recipe for oven oatmeal bake. I love oatmeal as well but I have been a little oatmealed out because I have been having every single day for breakfast.
I eat it every day too…but it’s nice to switch up the flavors 🙂
Looks amazing & yummy!!!!
Oh my goodness, this oatmeal looks amazing! I’m totally craving some right now! Pinned! 🙂
Thank for pinning HOLLZ
YUM! This looks incredible! I love oatmeal but I’ve never actually tried baked oatmeal (gasp!)
DO IT. It will warm your entire house up. And this midwest winter sure if giving us a good reason to turn our ovens on 🙂
Yum! I’m like you and could eat oatmeal for days – especially with that lovely cinnamon leche sauce! 🙂
Oh my gosh, this sauce looks like dulce di leche! I cannot stop drooling over it. Though I don’t have an oven for the next 4 months, I need to try this sauce over my usual oats!
You could still make this in the microwave I bet! No oven for 4 months. GASP.
