Rhubarb Pistachio Baked Oatmeal: Perfect for a Spring brunch!

Can you believe it’s Father’s Day week already?  Are you ready for it?  How do you usually celebrate?

My husband loves nothing more than to be on a beach, so for the past few years, we always take a little weekend getaway.  His dad has a little house on the Jersey shore, and the whole family gets together for a nice brunch.  I know he’s really looking forward to it this year.

I think brunch celebrations are probably pretty typical for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, so I thought this would be a good time to share this incredible breakfast recipe that’s especially great for feeding a crowd.

Can you believe I have never had baked oatmeal before?  I’m so behind the times.  Well, now that I’ve gone and done it, I’m sure there will be a lot more of it in my future.

I loved everything about it.  It’s so easy to make, a little sweet and cinnamon-y, with a hearty texture that reminded me of a soft oatmeal cookie.  Add some crunchy pistachios and tart, seasonal rhubarb and you have yourself a perfect breakfast dish.

Do you bake much with rhubarb?  I absolutely love it.  It’s truly one of my favorite things about spring.  In case you aren’t familiar, the stalks look a lot like celery but they cook down to a tart, fruity, and slightly floral jam-like consistency that I just can’t get enough of.  If you see some at your local farmer’s market I highly encourage you to pick some up!  I’ve got quite a few rhubarb recipes on this site to get you started.

But for now, be sure to click on over to the KitchenAid blog to grab this baked oatmeal recipe!  I think you’ll really love it!
