So thanks to the wonderful Breakfast Drama Queen (aka Claudia), I have a new favorite baked oatmeal recipe.

Can you guess what it is yet?? 😉

Yup, Jelly Doughnut Baked Oatmeal!!!

Okay, let’s talk doughnuts for a quick sec. I used to LOVE these bad boys…

Yeah, the chocolate creme-filled ones. OHMYGOSH you guys, I lovvvved those. Now the smell of them makes my stomach drop about 10 feet. Being known for their mouthwatering glaze that many of their doughnuts are covered in, this doughnut is also known for their very own crème filling. This was my jam. And speaking of jam, I HATED the jelly filled doughnuts.

The thought of biting into a doughnut with squirmy, wirmy, jelly in the center made me sick. I was totally scarred.

Think about it, a perfectly normal powdered doughnut. You take one bite, thinking about what kind of delicious filling might be inside, or maybe none at all. Then out comes….raspberry jelly. *Don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking the Krispy Kreme company or any other jelly doughnut-lover, I’m just stating my opinion!*

Since I’m not a doughnut-lover anymore, this baked oatmeal is the closest thing to it and it’s a DARN good recipe at that! 😀

Thank you to Claudia for the original recipe, I hope I did it justice!
