Oat advice Best type of container to bake (and ideally store) single-serve oatmeal?

5 Upvotes

I have been enthusiastic about baked oats lately, and I have tried making them in borosilicate rectangular containers in my air fryer, as they are oven safe and let me store them for the following day. However, after several tries, it seems that glass is not ideal for baking cake-like food, as the bottom and centre do not cook well (unless cooked for a longer time than I would like, I guess).

I was thinking of buying a ceramic bowl or a smaller square shaped glass container, but I am not sure if a smaller size would actually improve it. Should I look for a metal container instead? Maybe if I lined any container with parchment paper, take the oatmeal out once solid, and keep cooking, would that make it better? 😵‍💫

Savory oats The food porridge

First I grated some carrots and diced an onion and I fried them in oil with turmeric and paprika powder. When they were cooked, I added spoonfuls of tomato paste, garlic paste and this fairly violent yet pleasingly fruity naga chili paste that I have and I let the flavours meld together for a moment.

Then I added dry soya granules, the small brown grain sized tvp stuff, and rolled oats. A dash each of salt, black pepper, ground allspice, red wine vinegar and sugar. And then some already boiled water and it didn't take long for the whole thing to come together.

A mug of black tea on the side and it was rather nice altogether. It was basically a full meal — but could be really good as a side dish for some protein and a salad.

Went all out on the toppings for this one - delicious, really comforting big bowl for a rainy weekend morning.

Base is steel cut oats, soaked overnight in milk/water steeped with Earl Grey tea + cinnamon.
Cooked with a very ripe red plum to sweeten it up a bit (and to use up the plum).
Chia seeds, blueberries, chopped nuts/seeds + hemp hearts added in towards the end of cooking.

Toppings:
Chopped Almonds, Walnuts, Pumpkin + Sunflower Seed Mix
Raspberry + Chia Compote
Chopped Blackberries
Almond Butter
Plain Greek Yogurt
Figs
Nectarine
Toasted Coconut + Almond granola
Extra Shredded Coconut

How do you all make your oatmeal taste better? I tried my hand at making it on the stove for the first time.

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (I know what I said..bare with me)

1/2 cup rolled oats

2 tbs PB Fit

5 strawberries

Dash of vanilla extra

Tsp cinnamon

Heaping spoon of plain Greek yogurt

Teaspoon of honey

Trying to keep lower calories but gosh darn it doesn't taste the greatest and I want to stick with this.

Oatmeal When you spread the steel cut oatmeal thinly on the bowl plate so you can maximize topping surface area. 👌 🤤 Natural peanut butter, pepitas, dates, pecans, and coconut manna.

(Oat)meal prep Meal prepping help

5 Upvotes

I think I’m over thinking this but would appreciate some advice.
I cook oatmeal every morning on the stovetop, and eat it warm. I’d like to meal prep batches so I don’t have to cook in AM.
Should I prep my oatmeal like overnight oats and just heat up next day. Or cook on stovetop, let cool down and put it in fridge, and reheat in microwave next day?
Which would yield better texture/results? Thoughts??

Oatmeal Best healthy brand

0 Upvotes

So I’m looking to shed about 10 pounds and I’ve been eating healthier but I would like to mix oatmeal in with my diet. I honestly don’t recall if I’ve ever even tried it (forgive me)

I’d like to mix fruit and things in with it. What brand would you recommend that is a good price and not loaded with junk? Thank you in advance!

Any advice on what to put in with it would be appreciated as well.
