Very Berry Baked Oatmeal

Hello people! :D It's Sunday! Another week has past super quickly and September is approaching. (: School's gonna start really soon, but in the mean time, I shall enjoy my remaining holidays.

This flavour was inspired by the days I was working in Cold Stone Creamery. They had this signature creation of very berry, which is a mixture of 3 types of berries - strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. I decided to swap strawberries for blackberries because I couldn't get my hands on strawberries x.x But do feel free to swap it back to strawberries if you prefer that over blackberries! :D

Ingredients:
Rolled oats, around 40g
Milk (enough to cover the oats, you could add water to fill it up)
Applesauce (1 TBSP)
Cinnamon (a dash)
Assorted berries - as much as you want (:

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180C
2. Combine rolled oats, milk (or milk+ water), applesauce, assorted berries and cinnamon in a bake safe bowl
3. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25minutes
4. Top with more berries to serve (:

Key Lime Baked Oatmeal

I've never thought that lime and coconut would go so well together. Halfway through baking, I could already smell the warm coconut through the kitchen and the tangy lime zest is so refreshing. It's such a good mixture of smell and taste that I couldn't believe that it's Monday. Haha.

It was nonetheless a great experience there despite the not-so-good food with all the lovely people and weather (: If I have the chance (and money), I wouldn't mind a second visit :D
