Nothing warms the soul like cinnamon; it snaps your senses to attention while simultaneously satisfying your sweet tooth. It’s the perfect fix for those lazy mornings which is why I’ve incorporated it into today’s recipe: Cinnamon Oatmeal Bites.

These simple bites are made with hearty oatmeal infused with cinnamon and drizzled with just a touch of icing. It’s a cinnamon roll taste on a hectic work day morning!
