Baked Blueberry Cheesecake Oatmeal

One breakfast staple that I love to prep in advance and have on hand for delicious and quick breakfasts throughout the work week is baked oatmeal.

The options with oatmeal are endless.

This past weekend, I had some family over for a Sunday brunch and I whipped up this recipe for baked oatmeal to share (and hopefully save a bit for breakfasts throughout the week too!).

This oatmeal was a HUGE hit. Everyone loved it, which unfortunately meant there was little leftover for me.

Now I have an excuse to make some more.

Honestly, the best part of this recipe is that it takes about 2 minutes to throw all the ingredients in a bowl, mix it all up, and then transfer it to a baking dish before placing it in the oven.
What's better than a deliciously hearty breakfast with little effort when you have a three month old baby who won't let you put her down?!... Not much I tell you!
