To-Go Baked Oatmeal Recipe
Description
This baked oatmeal recipe combines rolled oats with wet ingredients including eggs, canola oil, brown sugar, applesauce, and milk to form a moist batter. Vanilla extract and cinnamon add aromatic flavors. Baking powder leavens the mixture slightly for a light crumb in the finished cups.
The batter is portioned into lined muffin tins and optionally topped with favorite ingredients like fruit or nuts. These toppings are pressed into the batter before baking. Baking at 350 degrees for 30 minutes yields tender oatmeal cups that can be easily packed for on-the-go eating.
Letting the baked oatmeal cool slightly before serving improves texture and handling. They store well in an airtight container or can be frozen for future use. These portable baked oatmeals make for convenient breakfasts or snacks without the need for reheating immediately.
