If you’re looking for a nutritious, versatile breakfast that comes together in a snap, this recipe couldn’t have come at a better time!

Is Baked Oatmeal healthy?

Let’s dive into the nutritional benefits of baked oats. Gluten-free oat flour is high in protein and fiber. If you opt for rolled oats instead, the same is true! The grain-free version uses almond flour, which is also low in carbs and rich in nutrients.

With the use of ground flaxseeds or a plant-based powder, even more protein is packed into this breakfast. It’ll give you long-lasting energy with every bite! We like to sweeten my oatmeal with pure maple syrup, but you can use any liquid sweetener of choice.

Recipe Ingredients

All you need are 9 main ingredients for the oatmeal base – no eggs, dairy or banana required! These ingredients apply to all the oatmeal flavors except for the grain-free version.

• Gluten-Free Oat Flour:We likeArrowhead Mills. If you don’t have oat flour, you can also use old-fashioned rolled oats, but you’ll have to blend them in a high-speed blender.
• Protein Powder:Use your favorite brand either unflavored or vanilla, we like this one. If you’re not a fan of protein powder, sub with ground flaxseeds. This omits the need for an egg or bananas, but you can add half a small mashed banana or 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce if you’d like.
• Pure Maple Syrup: Or your preferred liquid sweetener. Coconut nectar syrup, date syrup, honey (if not vegan) and Lakanto Sugar-Free maple syrup are all good options. Use Yacon syrup for keto baked oats.
• Vanilla Extract: For flavor and sweetness.
• Ground Cinnamon: To add warmth and depth of flavor.
• Baking powder: This helps the oats rise. Use a grain-free brand as needed.
• Unsweetened Almond milk: Any plant-based milk will work.
• Fine Sea Salt:to balance out the sweetness.
• Blueberries: we like using fresh blueberries when they are in season but frozen blueberries are delicious as well!

Optional creamy filling:

• Dairy-free yogurt: we like Kite-Hill or Culina.
• Tahini or creamy nut butter

For the optional blueberry muffin topping:

• Pecans: Chopped
• Coconut sugar or your preferred granulated sweetener. Lakanto golden monkfruit or granulated maple sugar work too.
• Cinnamon
• Coconut butter (or coconut manna): Melted to a pourable icing consistency.

Tips for Success

To guarantee your satisfaction, check out these simple suggestions for making vegan oatmeal.

• Don’t Use Instant Oats: If you choose to blend your own oats, be sure to use old-fashioned rolled oats. Instant oats will dry out quicker during the baking process.
• Allow to Cool:As tempting as it is to dive in the second your oatmeal is done cooking, I recommend letting your baked oats sit for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
• Adjust Batter Consistency:If you feel that your batter is too thick, go ahead and add another splash of milk. You can also add more milk if you want a softer consistency.

Baked Oat Variation Ideas

These are the baked oatmeal variations my family loves. You can also improvise and create a flavor of your own!

• Churro Vegan Baked Oats:Some date butter, coconut sugar and a little extra cinnamon goes a long way in your oatmeal. This flavor tastes just like a sweet cinnamon churro. Yum!
• Peanut Butter Baked Oats: Creamy peanut butter and your favorite jam make these baked oats taste like a good old-fashioned PB&J. We like to throw in some dairy-free chocolate chips as well!
• Grain Free:Made with almond flour instead of oat flour, this variation is a healthy and delicious grain-free alternative to classic baked oatmeal.

Can I Make Baked Oats In Advance?

Baked oats are great for making ahead of time, but I recommend cooking them before storing. Otherwise, the flour will soak up too much liquid and ruin the batter. Once baked, this oatmeal can be stored in the fridge and served for breakfast all week long!

How To Store and Reheat Leftovers

To store leftovers, place them in an airtight container in the fridge. Baked oatmeal lasts for up to 5 days in the refrigerator!

You can reheat your oatmeal in the microwave or toaster oven. To warm it up in the microwave, heat it for 30 seconds at a time. To reheat your oatmeal in a toaster oven, cook it at 300°F until warm.

Can I Freeze Blueberry Baked Oats?

Yes, leftover oatmeal can be stored in a freezer-safe container and frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw out frozen oatmeal in the fridge before you reheat it. I like to transfer it to the fridge at night for a quick-fix breakfast the next morning!
