Description
If you’re looking for a quick and easy breakfast idea — with fresh fruit (like strawberries and blueberries), you’ll have to try this Strawberry Baked Oatmeal. Spiced and perfectly sweetened, topped with toasted sliced almonds. It’s seriously delicious!
Ingredients
1 tablespoon butter for skillet
1–1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1/2 pound strawberries, hulled and halved (about 1 cup)
1/2 pound blueberries (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1–1/2 cups milk (dairy, almond, or soy)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Garnish:
toasted sliced almonds
fresh berries (if desired)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 10-inch cast iron skillet (affiliate link) (or ovenproof skillet), large gratin dish or 8-inch square pan.
Spread the oats evenly in the prepared skillet. Sprinkle with halved strawberries and blueberries in an even layer.
In a bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt. Add the egg and whisk to combine. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla; whisk until blended. Pour evenly over the oats and berries.
Bake until the oats are very tender and the liquid thickens, 30 to 35 minutes. Garnish with toasted, sliced almonds and additional fresh berries if desired. Serve warm.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator. And I will say from experience, it’s a wonderful snack, cold, straight from the fridge!
