Step 1
Start by mixing together the milk, oats, coconut, brown sugar, beaten eggs, golden raisins, chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt in a big bowl until everything is well combined. Pour the mixture into a 1.8-quart baking dish, cover it, and pop it in the fridge for at least 8 hours or overnight to let it soak. When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the oatmeal until the edges are set but the center still feels a bit soft, which should take about 45 minutes. Give it a good stir before serving, and enjoy!
