This oatmeal is packed with berries and brown sugar for a sweet start to your morning. We top our oatmeal with toasted pecans for a satisfying crunch; be sure to watch the pecans closely during the broiling step, as they can go from brown to burnt in an instant. We use a mix of thawed, frozen berries, but you can use fresh if you prefer. The toppings are the fun part, so don’t feel restricted to what we have chosen: nut butter, toasted coconut, and chia seeds would also make great additions to this dish.
