- Fold in any optional add-ins like chopped nuts or chocolate chips.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
Baking

Notes
This baked oatmeal stores well and can be reheated in the microwave or oven. For a cozy breakfast experience, serve with toppings like Greek yogurt, warm milk, or sliced bananas.
