Baked Oatmeal
Oatmeal that's baked with good for you ingredients to create a warm and filling breakfast for a crowd or to meal prep yourself.I looove recipes with oatmeal in them. I think oats are such a healthy and filling pantry staple to incorporate into your diet. When I think about healthy eating and a consistent diet, oats always come to mind. I've tried overnight oats and the regular stovetop oats, but baked oatmeal is my favorite way to make oats so far!It results in warm and fluffy oats that is sorta like a breakfast cake. It's lightly sweetened with agave or maple syrup and flavored with banana, vanilla and cinnamon. The toppings are endless so you can switch up breakfast day after day. I recommend extra banana, drizzled peanut butter and honey!! But some other good ideas would be adding in mixed berries or nuts and eating with maple syrup or greek yogurt.This baked oatmeal is one bowl, bakes in 30 minutes and no tricks or complications. I really think you'll love this recipe and find it useful in the future for crowds during brunch or for your own self!Recipe adapted from Sally's Baking Addiction.
