Happy Father’s Day! Your dad’s inner kid will love the PB&J flavors of the oatmeal bake and it’s so easy to make. Just don’t forget the eggs and bacon on the side!
I adapted this recipe from one of my oatmeal muffin recipes (which I’m also obsessed with, btw). Hopefully I’ll get to make a few spins on this recipe in the near future too! Can you hear the wheels turning already?If you frequent Peanut Butter and Fitness, you may have noticed some changes to the advertising on the site recently. I’m bummed to have had to add more ads than what used to be on the site, but honestly, I spend a lot of money testing, making and photographing all the recipes you see on here.
So…I decided to join an ad network (Mediavine) that will pay me more than what I was making with Google AdSense. I hope you guys don’t think I’m a sellout 😉 And I sincerely hope everyone enjoys their experience here!
Okay, enough about boring financial stuff – it’s time for me to do some homework and for you to go make this for the father-figure in your life!

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a baking dish with coconut oil and set aside.

Recipe Notes
I used a casserole dish like this to make mine.
