Carrot & Apple Baked Oatmeal

April 13, 2022

A great meal prep breakfast recipe, this baked oatmeal is full of warming spices and a welcome hint of maple. This combination of spices may remind you of a favorite cookie, but you can also choose to switch up the spices and fruit to match your personal taste preferences.

2 Tbsps. Local Roots maple syrup

2 Local Roots eggs
