Baked Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal
This looked too good to be true so I had to try it myself (:

1/2c Oats
1/4t Vanilla extract
1/2t Cinnamon
2 Packets splenda
1/4c Unsweetened applesauce 
1/4c Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
1/16t Salt

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine raw oats, spices, applesauce & milk. Pour into a small baking pan or ramekin (or if you’re like me and don’t have any of those fancy things, you can grease a muffin tin and fill up 2 of the cups!) Cook for about 15-25 minutes or until firm then devour BOTH of them for a whopping 180 calories! 

P.S. I also drizzled peanut butter on top of mine and sprinkled it with brown sugar
