Porridge, or oatmeal, makes a great family breakfast and is one I make for my own kids most days.

However, standing at the stovetop, stirring away can be a little tedious at times and I’ve spent many mornings wishing I didn’t have to do it.

Enter baked oats!

It can be prepared in advance, even the night before if you wish, popped in the oven for 20 minutes or so, and voila - breakfast is served!

Baked oats is easy to adapt - the fruit, the milk, the quantities can all be changed to suit you and your tastes.

Bear in mind that the cooking time will be different depending on the depth of the dish you use - a shallow dish should take around 20 minutes for perfect baked oats whereas a deeper dish will take longer.

Babies and toddlers

Baked oats is a great breakfast for babies and toddlers.

If you’re doing baby led weaning you can serve this to your baby in a bowl with a spoon or spread out on a tray.

It’s less wet than regular porridge (oatmeal) so easier for little hands to pick up.

Make ahead

Baked oats can be made the night before and stored in the fridge.

The oats will soak up a lot of the milk so stir well before baking and add a little more milk if you think it needs it.

Storage

Once cooked allow to cool then store any leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days in an airtight container.
