Baked oatmeal
Baked oatmeal is a wholesome breakfast made by baking oats with milk, eggs, sweeteners, and flavourings. Unlike stovetop oatmeal, it has a soft, cake-like texture that makes it satisfying and easy to portion. It is ideal for meal prep and can be enjoyed warm or cold. Nutritious, filling, and adaptable, baked oatmeal is perfect for busy mornings or a healthy snack.
