Baked Oatmeal Squares
PostpartumAmericanEasyServes 245 min
Batch-cooked oatmeal baked with mixed berries and chopped almonds.
This baked oatmeal is designed to be batch-cooked for those moments when you only have one free hand. The rolled oats provide essential fiber to keep the mother's digestion comfortable as her body heals, while delivering a steady stream of complex carbohydrates for energy. Milk and eggs offer a gentle boost of protein and calcium, helping to protect the mother's bone density as her body redirects nutrients to milk production for the baby.
