The Best Ever Baked Oatmeal
Description
This baked oatmeal uses quick oats mixed with sugar, baking powder, and salt as the dry base. The wet ingredients include eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract, which are combined and poured over the oats before baking. The dish is baked until the top is golden and the oatmeal has set.
Chocolate chips are added immediately after baking to gently melt into the warm surface. Toasted coconut, sliced almonds, hemp hearts, and chia seeds are sprinkled over the top to add flavor and texture contrasts. The final product has a firm but tender consistency and a mildly sweet and nutty flavor.
Served warm with an optional drizzle of milk or cream, this baked oatmeal works well for breakfast or brunch as a nourishing dish. It offers a convenient way to enjoy oats in a hands-off cooked format with added toppings for variety.
Ingredients
