A wonderful combination of fruit and nuts. I scaled the recipe to serve 4 and used Splenda brown sugar blend. The milk was reconstituted powder milk. I will be making this again.

I liked this a lot. I used Irish Oatmeal, regular brown sugar, and alonds instead of pecans. Served warm with maple syrup. Cut the recipe to two servings and made in my toaster oven. Delicious and easy.

Not just diabetic friendly but very tasty! A real feel good breakfast! I made for 1 in a small casserole dish. Thanks!
