Cardamom and Vanilla Baked Oatmeal is an easy and delicious meal for breakfast!
This Thursday.
It’s on.
I’m getting on an airplane with Charlie by myself. LORD HELP ME.
I keep telling myself that I’ll be fine. I’ve been around the world and back so I should be okay with any burp ups. BUT! For some reason, the thought of carrying an infant through an airport gives me high anxiety.
Charlie is a good baby overall. My issue is that people stare and judge you the entire time you are carrying a baby through the airport and on the plane. Have I told you that I hate when people stare at me? I get nervous when people sing me Happy Birthday as I blow out the candles. Total weirdo, I know.
Anyway, I am trying to decrease my anxiety by being efficient in packing. My plan is to check a bag, bring the stroller (gate check it), and wear her & a diaper bag. That should work, right? Lord help me if it doesn’t. The crazy part is I get back with her on Sunday and then we leave for Washington on Wednesday. So I definitely need to have my sh$t in order.
Okay, before I keep packing and re-packing, let’s chat about the this Cardamom and Vanilla Baked Oatmeal. You guys know that my love for cardamom runs deep. I don’t know what it is about this spice that makes me feel all warm and cozy inside.
I decided to toss it with some vanilla and oats which turned into this oatmeal bake. I should make more of these bakes. So easy to prep and a great meal to reheat when you’re short on time in the morning. Plus, you can add or subtract whatever kind of flavor your heart desires. I added apricots in this version because the cardamom goes so well it.
Maybe I should bring a pan of this on my flight to keep people distracted?
It’s either that or pot (wink, wink).
In conclusion, our Cardamom and Vanilla Baked Oatmeal is a warm, comforting breakfast that combines the fragrant essence of cardamom and the sweetness of vanilla. It’s a delightful way to kickstart your day with a touch of cozy indulgence.
