Strawberry oat bake

We have been making an oat bake at least weekly for the past few years. It’s a really fun variation to traditional oatmeal, super easy, and can be modified based on the ingredients you have on hand. Best of all, this oat bake tastes great with frozen fruit. Our most recent oat bake included frozen strawberries and this strawberry oat bake did not disappoint.

At the time of writing this, we are currently in quarantine. Many of the foods that were previously easily accessible are no longer easy to obtain. Many parents are feeling concerned with their child’s nutrient intake. In this recipe I added some fortified infant cereal. It can be a nice way to add some vitamins and minerals. Many of these cereals include vitamins like iron, B-vitamins, zinc, calcium and more.

If you are looking for something new to add to your breakfast rotation, I highly suggest this strawberry oat bake. Loved by my whole family!
