Easy Strawberry Banana and Walnut Oatmeal Bake

By Rebecca Doser at St. Lawrence University

I’m pretty sure that I could eat oatmeal-anything for every meal, snack and dessert of my life. Basically, I do just that: chocolate mocha protein pancakes with oatmeal in them are my rockin’ go-to for brunch with my housemates. I mean, oatmeal has so many great health benefits. It’s basically crack. Actually, you could apparently turn your oatmeal into “crack” with sweetened condensed milk. I prefer almond milk, but I mean, to each his own. Test it out and lemme know.

This easy healthy and filling oatmeal bake is perfect for your weekend brunch with friends or even as a yummy dessert. Make it with any choice of fruits and you will be sure to convince your friends that you are a pro-chef in no time.
