Baked oatmeal has become a beloved breakfast staple for many families looking for a nutritious yet satisfying way to start their day. Unlike traditional oatmeal, which is typically boiled and served hot, baked oatmeal is a delightful twist that combines wholesome ingredients and is cooked in the oven, resulting in a warm, cake-like texture. This modern take on breakfast not only feeds the body but also tantalizes the taste buds, making it a favorite among both adults and children.

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/4 cup maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 large egg (or flax egg for vegan option)

2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen, such as blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries)

1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional, for added texture)

1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter (for greasing)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish with coconut oil or butter.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well.

      In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg until fully combined.

        Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just blended.

          Gently fold in the mixed berries and nuts, if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

            Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.

                Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Cut into squares and serve warm, optionally with an extra drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of yogurt.
