Whole Rolled Oats: Be sure the container says whole oats. I buy this brand in bulk as it is more affordable.

Maple Syrup, to sweeten the cereal (optional)

Ground Cinnamon, added for flavor

Vanilla Extract, added to enhance flavor

Baking Powder, used as a leavening agent.

Strawberries, fresh sliced is best.

Almond milk or any non-dairy or regular milk as per your preference.

Cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Sliced strawberries in a glass measuring cup.

🔪 Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10-in cast-iron skillet or baking dish with cooking spray. Place half of the strawberries in the prepared baking dish.
In a large bowl, mix together the whole oats, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Sprinkle the dry ingredients evenly over top of the strawberries.
In a small bowl whisk together the milk, syrup, lemon zest, eggs, and vanilla. Pour the milk mixture over the oat mixture. Top with remaining strawberries.
Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the center is set.
Top with extra maple syrup and/or almond milk (if using).

🥄 Equipment

Cast iron skillet or square glass baking dish.
Chef knife
Cutting board
Hand whisk
4 cup liquid glass measuring cup (or small bowl), I use this to mix the egg mixture in.

🥫Storage

Store any leftover oatmeal in an airtight container in the fridge up to 4 days.

Substitute brown sugar for the maple syrup
Stir in a tablespoon of flax seeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds to boost the fiber content.
Sprinkle some chocolate chips on top after baking.
If your diet is not dairy free, regular milk can be used.
