It's a date for breakfast with Brown Sugar, nuts and oats

My BF Lars and I went to this wonderful restaurant in Sheboygan Falls and I ordered this yummy oatmeal for breakfast. I had to recreate it and it turned out surprisingly similar. A real gourmet treat on a camping trip or a yummy breakfast on a Sunday morning.
