Baked Oatmeal Bars Recipe
These Baked Oatmeal Bars are one of my favorite sweet breakfast recipes to make for breakfast and brunch! They add a sweetness to your breakfast table without the messy syrup and butter that French toast or pancakes require.

additional toppings and mix ins: top with sliced almonds and strawberries, blackberries OR you can mix in almonds, pecans, dried cranberries, dried cherries, raisins. I make mine plain because that's what the kids will eat and pile toppings on my own serving!
