I have been making this tasty breakfast for over a year now. I think I ate it almost every weekday last winter. I would pile it into a large coffee mug that was probably really meant for soup, stick a spoon in it, drive the quarter mile to my school (yes, I drove everyday), pop it in the microwave after I unpacked all my teacher stuff and enjoy a hot breakfast before the kids walked into the room. It was so perfect and so easy to take with me everyday!
The sweet brown sugar, tart cranberries, and crunchy walnuts all make for the perfect combination. You can definitely change the ingredients up, use raisins instead of cranberries, or almonds instead of walnuts. This is one of the most comforting dishes of food and you get to enjoy it in the morning!
The recipe below makes 4-5 servings. I would usually double it so that I would have a larger batch. What? I was pregnant. :)

I recently had this recipe and it was delicious. Thanks so much for sharing so I can make it for my family and make it for others.
I was wondering if you thought I could do this in individual serving dishes and if so how long would I bake them?
Hi. You can definitely make them individually (I think that's a great idea!). I would start with about 15 minutes and work up from there. Just make sure they are fairly set on the top and beginning to brown. Enjoy!
would this work with steel cut oats?
You could definitely give it a try, although I haven't tried them with this particular recipe. Steel cut oats need to cook longer, so start with an additional 5 minutes and go from there. They may also need more liquid so you are going to have to play around with that part of it.
They certainly are a source of comfort as people will get
