Baked Oatmeal

Baked Oatmeal makes a hearty and filling breakfast. Full of fiber and healthy fats, it’s sure to keep you full. Make a double batch and reheat all week long.

Hi Friends!

Just popping in with a quick new recipe to share today! As you probably know, I eat oatmeal pretty much every morning for breakfast. I usually just make it in the microwave, but yesterday I thought it might be fun to change things up and make a baked version.

Baked Oatmeal makes a hearty and filling breakfast. Full of fiber and healthy fats, it's sure to keep you full. Make a double batch and reheat all week long.

This is a twist on my favorite morning oatmeal combo, with a few adjustments to make it more suitable for baking! Keep in mind that this is not very sweet. It works for me with just the sweetness from the banana and milk and then the fruit and peanut butter drizzle on top. If you like things sweeter, you may want to add a little honey or sugar to yours.

Here’s the recipe:

I don’t know why it took me so many years to discover parchment paper but it really makes getting stuff out of pans a whole heck of a lot easier!

Feel free to customize this to your liking. Use your favorite fruit, try applesauce if you don’t like banana, or even drizzle with chocolate if you wanna get crazy!

And don’t feel the need to make yours pretty like mine. That was just for the pictures 🙂

    Big time oatmeal lover! And baked is my favorite followed closely by overnight oats. Many favorites but my most often eaten usually involves a banana and nut butter is some way.

    I’ve been eating oatmeal every morning, recently. My fave way to make oatmeal is with cinnamon, egg whites, banana, and almond milk.

      Hey JoJo, I recently turned into an oatmeal junkie myself. I used to hate it, but a friend of my introduced me to blending it and drinking it and I have been hooked ever since, yum.

      @Lindsay is it possible or do you know how much calories this treat has? It looks pretty delish and can’t wait to give it a try.

    Oatmeal is my life. Just kidding. Kind of. Anyone who says they don’t like it I think just needs to try it with some healthy, tasty fixin’s. Baked is such a fun twist, and I love that these are portable too!
