Baked oats are back and lots of us are once again tucking into the winter breakfast dish for a cosy start to the day. Made with oatmeal, as the name suggests, you simply mix in yoghurt and your choice of fruit then pop it in the oven for a filling a hearty meal.
Cakeontherun is a huge baked oats fan and has created dozens of nutritious breakfast recipes using porridge oats. Her recipes are all easy to follow, quick to rustle up and only use cheap, everyday ingredients - there's nothing you can't pronounce involved.
You don't need to be any good at baking to make any of them as the instructions are super simple, plus because they do not contain eggs, they are all suitable for vegans when using a dairy free yoghurt such as soya.
