Holiday morning breakfasts are always something that I like to plan and make ahead. With the Holidays themselves being stressful enough as it is, I like to be sure that when it comes to breakfast, I’m have little to nothing to worry about. Amish style baked oatmeal has always, and will always, be my go-to staple crowd pleasing made ahead breakfasts.

I took my standard Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal and turned it into a festive Holiday breakfast that’s full of gingerbread spice and everything nice! This overnight oatmeal has all the warm gingerbread flavors and just a touch of sweetness.

If you’re a fan of gingerbread cookies or of gingerbread bread, you will love this Baked Gingerbread Oatmeal. I’ve kept it lightened up by using a natural sweetener in place of standard brown sugar. I also used an almond milk to save on calories.

After that, there’s molasses and a whole lot of spices to really get that gingerbread taste into the oatmeal; which it has the change to do with soaking all that goodness up overnight. For this oatmeal, you can use quick oats or old-fashioned. Either one will give you a great tasting breakfast. The only difference will be the consistency or texture.

Make it ahead for a Holiday morning breakfast treat, or have it on hand as a meal prep around the holidays to keep yourself sane and fed in the midst of all the chaos!

I like to serve mine warm with a touch of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and a drizzle of local honey, but you can serve it up and enjoy it any which way you like.
