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.
