Cinnamon Orange Baked Oats Recipe- The Seasonal Junkie

Wow friends, what a weekend it has been.

Being an Aquarius I’m pretty quirky. I definitely get funny looks sometimes on things that I say or do. But Saturday one-hundred percent took the cake. While I was on my run, Missy Elliot came on my playlist. And there is just something that like takes hold of my body when I’m feeling a song. Let me tell you, I was REALLY feeling it. So there I am, running on Scottsdale Road doing my weird run/dancing that I do. And guys,  I totally eat it. Into a bush. At 7:30 AM. Yes, there was an audience. And all I can think at that point is- It was worth it, I really worked it. Will I still dance on runs? Absolutely. But I definitely will be more mindful of bushes and things like that.

Anyways, after my eventful morning I wanted to come up with a baked oats recipe.

Not just any baked oats recipe,  but this beauty cinnamon orange baked oats recipe. Citrus season is probably my favorite season. It grows everywhere here. So naturally I find ways to sneak it into all sorts of cooking. The great things about this baked oats recipe is that you can really customize it to your liking. Also, meal prep is a breeze. On Sunday, just whip up one of these baked oats recipe and tuperware it up and eat it throughout the week. If you are going to have nuts in the mix, I definitely suggest toasting them before, it adds another layer of flavor.
