Instructions

  • First, preheat oven to 350ºF and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Mix all of the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl until combined.
    Oats and cinnamon in a bowl with a wooden spoon.
  • Then, whisk all of the wet ingredients into a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix.
  • Transfer the batter to a baking dish and bake at 350ºF for about 30 minutes or until the top begins to brown. If the middle of the oatmeal bake isn’t baking, cover the bake with tin foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.

Tips & Notes

  • Storage: store the tres leches sauce separately from the oatmeal bake. Reheat both the oatmeal bake and the sauce before serving.
  • Be sure to use quick-cooking oats. This recipe has been tested with rolled oats and it changes the texture and cook time completely.
