No surprise I love baking and cooking for my family. This Maple Baked N’Oatmeal is the current family favorite. I make a batch and Super Hubby takes it to work for breakfast every day with fresh fruit. This morning we woke up to snow ice and negative temperatures- my summer loving heart needed a cozy family breakfast before we started our day of house projects. Fresh squeezed OJ and fresh fruit from the year round farm Market Willey Farms , a perfect match for this Maple Baked N’Oatmeal.
