Loved this, the creamer gives a lovely creaminess and sweetness to it, almost tastes too sinful for brekky. Yum!

I wanted to use up some of the fresh blueberries I had and make something my 15 month old would enjoy. I decided to try this recipe since he loves oatmeal. However, I did make some modifications. I only added 2 tablespoons of sugar and instead of the french vanilla non-dairy coffee creamer, I used a little heavy cream and whole milk and added a splash of vanilla. My son loves the oatmeal! I tried it too, and it is delicious! Thank you for sharing!

Some of the most delicious oatmeal we've tried. It has such a rich creemy consistency without being too sweet for breakfast. We used frozen blueberries and it was perfect. Thank you so much for this tasty idea.

This recipe was great! My family really liked it. I used regular oats and increased the cooking time to 5 minutes, otherwise I went pretty much by the recipe (I did put in a little extra creamer).

I really liked how this wasn't too sweet...just right! I used frozen berries which instantly cooled the oatmeal down to the right eating temperature. Thanks Charlotte J!
