How to Make Sweet Potato Baked Oatmeal
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a bowl, stir together rolled oats, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Scoop cooked sweet potato flesh and mash until smooth.
  4. In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla until silky and well-blended.
  5. Stir together the wet mixture into dry oats and fold in mashed sweet potato until a uniform batter forms.
  6. Transfer the oat mixture to your prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula for even baking.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  8. Let it rest 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm, topped with nuts or fruit.
