Healthy Baked Oatmeal

Baked oatmeal is the best! I love it because it’s an easy way to prep a week’s worth of breakfast in one pan. The banana helps to naturally sweeten these oatmeal bars and the oats make it hearty.

Plus, oatmeal has tons of health benefits such as weight loss, lower blood sugar levels, and a reduced risk of heart disease.

With a newborn in my house, every day looks a little different. But, I’ve found that if I don’t prioritize food and have healthy items prepared in my fridge, I tend to make poor food choices. Food is fuel and I need all the energy I can muster up these days.

Plus, oats are great for breastfeeding mamas! It’s known to help boost your milk supply too!
