Who says healthy food can’t taste absolutely, amazingly delicious? This oatmeal is incredible! I could eat it three meals a day =). I was so in love with the banana oatmeal that I made last week (I’ve been eating it nearly every morning since) that I decided I wanted to try more variations on oatmeal because I’m suddenly an oatmeal lover.
So, I came up with this recipe. This oatmeal tastes just like a cinnamon roll! The incredible things about it are, it’s much healthier, much quicker and it’s even more figure friendly =). You get all the goodness of a cinnamon roll in 5 minutes, rather than waiting around hours for those freshly baked, labor intensive rolls.
You’ll even get a kitchen filled with the warm, reminiscent scent of cinnamon rolls. Serve this up for your kids and it’s likely you’ll get them to eat their oatmeal everyday =). Turn an oatmeal hater into an oatmeal lover with this Cinnamon Roll Oatmeal!

Remove from microwave, stir in optional butter and allow to cool several minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, using a fork, whisk together cream cheese, powdered sugar and milk until well blended. Drizzle or pipe icing over oatmeal (if you’d like to make the swirl as I did in the photos just make an light indentation in oatmeal with a chopstick, when it has cooled slightly, then pipe icing into indentation). Sprinkle lightly with additional cinnamon if desired. Serve warm.Additional serving suggestion: if you like chopped pecans or raisins in your cinnamon rolls feel free to sprinkle some in.
