Heavenly Amish Baked Vanilla Oatmeal Recipe (8 Ingredients, 35 Minutes) High Protein High Fiber Amish Brunch Low Sodium Budget

Baked oatmeal is such an easy thing to make for your family for breakfast or brunch. This Amish baked oatmeal recipe smells heavenly while it bakes and takes only a few minutes to prepare. You do need to allow time for the oats to soak, but if you did this the night before, breakfast would be ready for the oven before you even poured that first cup of coffee.

To make this high-fiber, high-protein baked oatmeal recipe you need just a few simple ingredients. Here is your shopping list: brown sugar, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, butter, milk and old-fashioned oats (check out the health benefits of oats). This is a great recipe to make the night before so you just have to pop it into the oven the next morning.

Next time I'm going to sprinkle some chopped nuts and flaked coconut on the top. I drizzled mine with local honey, but maple syrup would be just as tasty. Be sure to read about the health benefits of fiber and the health benefits of protein.
