I love making gingerbread this time of year. I have a great recipe that was passed down from my great-grandmother. But, I'm sad to say, I've been so busy this year that the season has gotten away from me and I have yet to make any delicious Christmas treats. At least I have these gingerbread overnight oats to fill the void.
Enjoy!
