We love oatmeal and make it at least a few times a week. There are a few ways we like to make it…stove top, using a slow cooker or baked. One of the reasons why I baking oatmeal is because once it’s in the oven your work is done. When cooking on the stove top you need to cook it for awhile and you need to be very hands on with the cooking process because you need to stir it constantly. We all know about busy mornings. When trying to get the kids out the door you want to make your life easier, not harder.
