I absolutely love waking up on winter mornings to a huge, warm bowl of oatmeal. Today I’m putting a twist on my basic oatmeal recipe!
Pear Spiced Oats
I found a pear in the fridge…
There was no way it could be eaten alone so I put it into some oats!

I think it comes from cooking them for so long! It’s the only way I’ll eat them!
I love your recipe format! Is it a plugin? Are you self-hosted? Happy Wednesday 🙂

Yes, I am self-hosted 🙂 it’s a plugin called Recipe Card! I really like it!
I’ve missed reading your blog girlie! These oats look wonderful. I don’t think I’ve ever thought to add pear to my oats, but I love the idea! I think my favorite kind of oats is when I stir in part of a chocolate bar… mmm 😛 But I love good ‘ole banana oats too! Especially when the banana is caramelized!

Mhmm yum! I love putting fruit in my oatmeal and adding spices always make it so much more flavorful!
