I recently discovered this awesome breakfast idea
-
that is perfect for people on the go.
-
It's called baked oatmeal and not only
-
is it super delicious, it's also super nutritious,
-
and super easy to make.
-
What could be better than that?
-
Today I'm going to show you the basic recipe for baked oatmeal
-
and then show you how to top it three delicious ways.
-
For this wonderful breakfast treat,
-
we're going to start by mixing our dry ingredients.
-
Now we are starting with rolled oats.
-
You don't wanna use instant oats or quick oats,
-
you wanna use good old fashioned rolled oats.
-
To that, we are going to add some baking powder for lift.
-
A little bit of salt and some brown sugar.
-
The greatest part about this recipe is that you can add as much or as little sugar as you like.
-
It really is totally up to you.
-
We're going to whisk together our dry ingredients really, really well
-
and then set them aside.
-
In a second smaller bowl, we're going to mix together our wet ingredients.
-
So we're starting with some eggs and some milk,
-
some applesauce, and just a little bit of melted butter.
-
We're going to add a little splash of vanilla for flavor
-
and that's it.
-
Once the two of these are combined,
-
we're gonna scoop these into a muffin tin.
-
I've lined my muffin tin with some cupcake liners
-
to make these extra portable, but I will warn you
-
they do tend to stick, so you wanna make sure you're giving them a good spritz with cooking spray before you start filling.
-
Once you filled your muffin tin, you could pretty much add whatever type of flavors you want.
-
Today I'm doing some blueberry coconut,
-
some chocolate chips and crushed almonds,
-
and finally, some cranberries and crushed pistachios.
-
How delicious does that sound?
-
Into the oven these go at 375 for 30 minutes.
-
After 30 minutes, they are soft and chewy and ready to eat.
-
The best part about these is that they can be stored in your refrigerator for three or four days
-
or in your freezer for up to six months,
-
so they are the perfect breakfast on the go.
-
I hope you'll give these delicious baked oatmeals a try
-
and let me know how they turn out for you.
