So, like the title of this post says, I have some news…I’m not really sure how to tell you this…I’ve definitely been putting it off because I didn’t want to worry anyone.
I’ve been feeling some weird reactions after I eat my breakfast every morning like sneezing, coughing and sore, itchy eyes. This has been going on for a couple weeks now, so yesterday I went to our health center and I was told some shocking news…
I have a severe allergy to oats.

APRIL FOOL’S, THAT’S SUCH A LIE!!!
The flower picture was just to throw you all off the track. 😉
Wow, it’s April already?! Where’s the nice weather?
Seriously though, I don’t know what I would do if I was allergic to oats! That would be so annoying! Sorry if worried you all, but come on, it’s April Fools Day!
So since I’m 100% not allergic to any oat products, here’s a fabulous oatmeal recipe for you today. 🙂
Chocolate cake for breakfast?? You bet!
Chocolate Cake Baked Oatmeal
(A Work in Progress)
- Serves: 1

1/3 of a ripe banana
1/2 tsp peanut butter
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup rolled oats
Pinch of salt
1 tbsp. cocoa powder
1/4 tsp baking powder

Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and spray a single serve baking dish or ramekin with PAM and set aside.

- Pour mixture into the prepared ramekin and bake for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the frosting in a small cup. Spread this on top of the oats when they have cooled a bit.

I somehow managed to wiggle it out of the dish after it set for a little, so if you feel the need to do so, please do! 🙂
