How to Serve Baked Oatmeal
I love eating baked oatmeal on it’s own but you could absolutely pair with more options for a full breakfast spread. Here’s what I would serve with baked oatmeal:
- Fruit Salad with Mint or Easy Fruit Salad
- Hard Boiled Eggs, Egg and Greens Bowl, Baked Egg Muffins or Sausage Egg Casserole with Veggies
- Health Nut Smoothie
How to Store Baked Oatmeal
Baked oatmeal stores super well! After allowing to cool, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze for longer storage!
