We don't have a microwave, so I've had to get creative with pre-made HEARTY breakfasts these days. Breastfeeding hunger is real and I'm a bit of a mess on days I don't have pre-prepared food on hands. I'm actually loving baked oats way more than I expected to. I was getting tired of the two recipes I had on rotation, so I modified this recipe today for a change of pace!
Baked Steel Cut Oatmeal (makes 4 servings)
1 cup steel cut oats
1/4 cup pecans (or chopped nuts of choice)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 scoops collagen powder
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 cups milk of choice
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbs butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 egg
1 cup frozen blueberries
Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl and stick in fridge overnight.
In the morning, stir again and pour into an 8x8 baking dish.
Bake at 375 for 40 minutes.
Try not to eat the whole pan in one day!
