Description

Baked Oats with fruits and nuts.This is a very easy and healthy breakfast dish. This can also be a good snack. Especially working people can make this ahead of time and eat it on the go! You can make this dish with a variety of nuts and fruits. I have used dates and walnuts in this recipe. You can add dried coconut, dried apricots, fresh strawberries, blueberries, any nuts. It is a very simple recipe. I love this dish because its easy to make and diet friendly.
