Oatmeal. It’s what’s for breakfast. Or, at least, it’s what could be for breakfast! Although it’s July when I’m posting this, this would be a fabulous breakfast when the cold weather hits – warm up your house and your bodies before hitting the winter snow!
I don’t know where I found this recipe, but it’s in my current rotation of breakfast goodness. It’s a baked oatmeal recipe, so it comes out more in bars. It’s a soft oatmeal recipe, so you’d still eat it with a fork.
Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3 cups oatmeal
- 1/2 cup brown sugar

- Grease a 9x13 pan.
- Dump the mixture into the pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, depending on how crunchy you want the top.

While she likes to cook, she’s in the stage of life where simple is usually better! She never knows how many hands she’ll have free at dinner time! You can find her at No Regrets Living.
What temperature do you bake this yumminess? Would it work in a crock pot?
ACK! The devil is in the details, isn’t it?! 350 degrees.
As for the crock pot, I’m sure it would work as the crock pot is just a fancy, table top oven of sorts, but I haven’t ever tried it. I don’t think it would take as long as “all night”, but probably a couple of hours, making it not a super great option for breakfast. So I’d probably put it on mid-afternoon, check on it often, then serve it for breakfast the next day!
Do you use quick cook oats or thick cut?
