Cinnamon and clove add warming, fall flavors to this oatmeal recipe. They pair nicely with the tropical fruit guava, which can be sweet or more tart depending on its ripeness.

Ingredients
- 1 red guava
- 1/2 cup (50g) Quaker Oats

Peel the guava, remove the seeds and cut the flesh into small cubes.
