Banana Spice Cake Baked Oatmeal with Cream Cheese

You know what’s delicious? Banana spice cake with cream cheese frosting.

I fell in love with that cake during my sophomore year of college. The dining hall would serve a variety of desserts every evening, and I loved when they offered this cake. My roommate/cousin (hi, Candice!) would always grab a slice when this was available.

Now that I like vegan cream cheese, I was so excited to finally make this oatmeal. I have to say, out of all my cream cheese oatmeals (I have many more, and they will be posted in the upcoming weeks!), this one is my favorite.

And honestly, if you don’t have the cream cheese, you can make this oatmeal without it and it’s still incredible. It’s a bit like banana bread, but I loved the intensity of the spices in this recipe. Omgggg.

I also added pecans when I ate this. Super good. šŸ™‚
