A warm and comforting baked oatmeal recipe, perfect for chilly mornings.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a square baking dish.
Greasing the dish ensures the oatmeal doesn't stick, making cleanup easier.
In a mixing bowl, combine the oatmeal, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Mixing the dry ingredients first ensures even distribution of flavors.
Add the milk, melted butter, and eggs to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
Whisk the eggs separately before adding for easier mixing.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Tap the dish gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Check at the 40-minute mark to avoid overbaking.
Serve warm, adding a splash of milk and a sprinkle of brown sugar to each portion.
Customize each serving with your preferred amount of milk and sugar.
