Now Hiring: Operation Beautiful Social Media Volunteer

In my quest to make more prep-ahead breakfasts, today I tried my hand at Baked Oatmeal.

I could’ve baked this breakfast yesterday, and then all I would’ve had to do was reheat, but time got away from me last night.  So I pre-measured the dry and wet ingredients into separate bowls before going to bed.  This morning, I just mixed them together, added the egg, topped with peaches, and popped in the oven.

Simple, but not quite simple enough for my sleep deprived brain.

Ughhhh.

Peaches Baked Oatmeal (based on this recipe)

Ingredients (for four servings):

• 2 cups raw oatmeal
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup roasted and salted sunflower seeds
• 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut

• 1 and 1/2 cup soy milk
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons Earth Balance

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Combine all the ingredients except peaches.
• Pour into 8 X 8 greased casserole dish.
• Top with sliced peaches.
• Bake for 30 minutes.

Yum.  And there’s leftovers!
