Baked Oatmeal



Here is another recipe for Baked Oatmeal—Bart made this for our breakfast this morning. I have discovered I really like oatmeal when it is baked—I like to have an identifiably chewy texture to the oatmeal. This recipe makes a HUGE batch of oatmeal—you can reheat individual servings for breakfast for a few days. And since it makes a basic oatmeal, you can customize it differently every day so the leftovers will be exciting and new. This recipe is adapted from My Kitchen CafĂ©.

6 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups milk
4 beaten eggs
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Mix all ingredients together and pour into a greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until golden brown and set up.

Serve warm as desired (with fruit and milk or with chocolate chips, coconut, nuts, and ice cream).

  1. I was just dreaming about baked oatmeal yesterday. How fortunate I am to have found this recipe on our blog! I can't wait to try this recipe, as I am not a big fan of dried fruit in my oatmeal. . . But I definitely love fresh fruit on top!

  2. This oatmeal is the ideal breakfast for a summer morning, or any time of the year. It's perfect with choclate chips, coconut, vanilla icecream, and an assortment of fresh fruit lightly covering the top!
