Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 2 cups Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cups Maple syrup
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen berries (optional)
- 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) or similar-sized baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir to combine thoroughly.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, maple syrup, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
If using berries or nuts, gently fold them into the mixture.
Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the mixture is set in the center.
Remove the baked oatmeal from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own, or with an additional splash of milk or dollop of yogurt, if desired.
