Healthy Breakfast Crème Brûlée
Okay, there is no creme in this creme brulee recipe. But here is the thing, I love oatmeal. I really do. But my biggest complaint about oatmeal--as a foodie--is that it's quite unappealing. Very unappealing!
You might have noticed, I really get into the visuals of food here at Cooking Stoned. So making oatmeal sexy is one of my goals. It's so tasty and healthy, I think more people would enjoy it if it didn't look like a big grayish-brown blob. Did I succeed?
