Here is a peek into my oven this morning:
I must have made breakfast too early this morning, or maybe I just didn’t eat enough, Because this delightful dish came out of the oven at about 10:30 this morning. Yes, that’s right, I had baked oatmeal at 10:30 in the morning. I chalk it up to being one of the perks of being a stay at home mom, no one tells me when I can take a break & indulge in something so amazing.
Mix all of these dry ingredients together in your baking dish.
2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup chocolate chips (because chocolate chips are so high in calories I tried to use the least amount I could and still get a good covering of them on the oatmeal).
Add these over the top and push some of them down in a ways.
3/4 cup sliced strawberries- I use frozen, some were sliced, a few were whole.
1 sliced banana
Whisk these 3 things together and pour over the top.
2 cups milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon homemade vanilla
Baked at 350 for 35ish minutes.
Yummm!
For leftovers: Since we don’t use a microwave, I scoop what I want into a small pan and heat it up on the stovetop. It only takes about 3 minutes and it’s heated evenly and stays warmer longer than if it were nuked.
That looks VERY yummy!
