Baked Oatmeal

At our house, we LOVE breakfast. And oats, and cinnamon. This simple, yummy oatmeal combines all three, plus even more goodness. I first tried this while living in Uruguay, and have since made modifications until I feel like it is just right. This has been a family favorite for some time, and I hope you enjoy this new twist on an often boring breakfast food.

  • 3 c oats
  • ½ c brown sugar
  • 2 t baking powder
  • ½ t salt
  • 2 t cinnamon 
  • ½ t nutmeg
  • 1 c milk
  • 2 t vanilla
  • ¼ c melted butter

Prepare your ingredients and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine all dry ingredients. I love to add two HEAPING teaspoons of cinnamon. If you want sweeter oatmeal, add more sugar.

To melt the butter, pour your milk in a microwave safe liquid measuring cup, like this one. Put your butter in the milk, and microwave both on high for about 2 minutes, checking/stirring every 30 seconds. Add the vanilla.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then dump the bowl into your 9×13 baking dish and push  around until relatively flat.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Best served with warm milk. Enjoy!
