This Gingerbread Oatmeal Brûlée is a healthy and delicious breakfast that is perfect for the upcoming holidays!!
This recipe has been in my mind for a lonnnggg time now. If you’ve been following this blog for a while now, you know that dessert-like breakfast recipes are ma thang. Its my style, my swag, its how I roll.
Now that Christmas is close by, gingerbread is acceptable everywhere. Yes, gingerbread cookies are good, but its not socially acceptable to eat them for breakfast. Im mean, I wouldn’t judge ya if you did, but I would warn you that there are haters out there.
But oatmeal is socially acceptable for breakfast, so gingerbread cookie flavoring in oatmeal is socially acceptable for breakfast. Catch my drift? Even if you’re not on the same page a I am, at least you know that this breakfast recipe is gonna taste great.
And by looking at the pics you wouldn’t be able to tell its actually healthy, but I promise it is. No lying involved in this post. Your gonna love this Gingerbread Oatmeal Brûlée, I pinky-swear.

It’s genuinely very difficult in this active life to listen news on Television, therefore I just use web for that purpose,
and obtain the most up-to-date information.
Thank you for some other informative web site. Where else
could I am getting that type of information written in such a perfect method?
I have a challenge that I am simply now working on, and I have been on the look out
for such information.
