Tips and variations
- To save time in the morning, assemble the oatmeal in the baking pan in the evening and refrigerate.
- Reheat leftover baked oatmeal in the microwave. Scoop a serving in a bowl and heat for 1 minute on high. Add additional milk to serve.
- To serve this dish to a group, leave the fruit out of the oatmeal. Instead, serve a variety of chopped fresh fruits, dried fruits, chocolate chips, and nuts in small bowls. Individuals can top the cooked oatmeal with their own toppings.
