This recipe is too sweet for my taste. I followed the recipe and added 2 T. of honey to the oatmeal before chilling but I ended up not using the third tablespoon of honey as it was already too sweet (with the dried fruit in addition to the honey.) If I make this again, I'll add the honey, to taste, at the end.
