Blueberry Banana Oatmeal Bake

I have been on a breakfast binge mission as of late.  I'm desperately searching for new ways to have and enjoy a breakfast, given our hectic mornings.

I cannot eat breakfast first thing in the morning.  I don't know why...it just doesn't sit well with me.  And let's be completely honest, I am usually running very late, also knowing I have a 45-60 minutes commute ahead of me.  My husband never leaves the house without having his breakfast...I however, need to wait until around 9am for mine.

I typically like to make a big batch of something and take half of it to work on Mondays, so that I know breakfast will be waiting for me when I arrive every day of the week.

This new found find is awesome!!!  It has the perfect amount of warmth, sweetness, and crunch to do the trick.  Enjoy and have a great week.
