Baked oatmeal is a method of cooking oatmeal where you combine rolled oats with eggs and milk and any other flavorings and bake it to create a muffin or cake-like breakfast.
The texture is like a hearty bread or muffin and it’s so good with toppings like peanut butter, honey or fresh berries. This texture also makes it a great breakfast to take on the go.
Baked oatmeal is one of our go-to ways to eat oatmeal because it’s almost like eating cake for breakfast. Baked oatmeal is also a great make-ahead breakfast idea that takes no time to reheat when you’re ready to eat.
