Baked Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

I think I am losing my mind. For example, last week I thought I lost my debit card. I went to get lunch with co-workers and pulled out my wallet and my card wasn’t there. I didn’t get too worried, I figured maybe it was home. But then my husband got home before me and said it wasn’t there. When I got home we went through my car and my purse (twice). I tried to think back to the last time I used it, I thought it was Target so I called to see if they found it. No luck. So just to be careful, I reported it missing. As soon as I hung up, I told my husband that I would find it any minute. Later that night while I was drifting off to sleep. I had an epiphany. It was in the trash in our bathroom. In a CVS bag that the girl threw it in with my allergy meds just the day before.

See? I’m losing it. This was just one example of my craziness. I could go on, but I like you guys too much to torture you with that.

At least I think I still have it together in the kitchen. This baked apple cinnamon oatmeal is fall in a bowl. It’s warm and comforting and full of apple goodness. It’s a great breakfast to make for yourself, but it can easily be doubled to feed a bigger crowd. Oh, and did I mention it’s super easy to make too?!
