[recipe] favorite breakfast recipes?
was just wondering if anyone had any great homemade breakfast recipes to share! I'm notoriously picky but wanted to start off by sharing my favorite baked oatmeal. a family member got it's recipe from a bed and breakfast, and I'm obsessed with it.
bed and breakfast oatmeal
- 3 cups oatmeal
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup oil
- 2 eggs
- 2t baking powder
- dash of salt
- mix together and pour into casserole dish
- bake at 375 degrees for 40-45 minutes
some optional things I've taken to adding are walnuts, vanilla extract, almond extract, and/or cinnamon. if you add the extracts, I would recommend adding a bit more oatmeal to compensate. and if the middle of it doesn't seem quite baked (I've had this issue before when I'm too eager to eat it!) then I would let it sit outside the oven for like 5 minutes or so.
I've also shared these breakfast cookies before as well, but I thought I'd share them again.
anyone else got recipes to share?
Mine is also oatmeal based... porridge, but I try to up it a little.
- 70g porridge oats
- 400ml whole milk
- Maple syrup
- Malt extract
- Any fruit will go with this.
The malt extract gives a lovely colour and the maple syrup so as to avoid processed sugar (I don't mind processed sugars, just not for breakfast) I also like to cook it on a very low heat for 30 minutes - porridge cooked to quickly doesn't soften to a nice texture. It's also really easy as I can wake up, put in on and get ready for my day and return to it when it's done.
