BLUEBERRY BAKED OATMEAL is packed with oats and blueberries and sweetened with brown sugar. It’s a cozy and filling way to start the day. 

My brother used to eat instant oatmeal just about every morning when we were growing up and, truth be told, I thought it looked so weird that I never even tasted a bowl of oatmeal until I was an adult.

Weird, right?!

It’s still not an every day food for me, but sometimes I just get a craving for a warm, cozy bowl of oats. And if there are berries involved? Well, the more the merrier. 

I really love to make this baked oatmeal for breakfast once and then reheat it all week long. It makes mornings so easy and my kids are happy to take a break from their usual breakfast of cold cereal. 

How to make this baked oatmeal recipe: 

Making baked oatmeal is just as easy as making it on the stove, but we love the texture you get from baking. It turns out a bit cakey and who doesn’t want cake for breakfast?!

Add your oats, milk, sugar, butter, eggs, baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt to a mixing bowl and give it a good stir.

Fold in some fresh or frozen blueberries.

Spread this mixture into a greased baking dish and pop it in the oven 30 minutes. 

That’s it! It’s beyond simple.

To serve: 

Top your baked oatmeal with a drizzle of heavy cream and maple syrup or dollop on a scoop of Greek yogurt. 

More berries are always welcome on top of our baked oatmeal!

Make ahead:

This baked oatmeal with blueberries is perfect for making ahead! You’ll get 6 servings out of one batch, but feel free to double the recipe if you think you’ll eat more within 5 days.

Wrap the oatmeal tightly and store in the refrigerator.

Reheat individual servings in the microwave. 

Freezing:

This baked oatmeal recipe freezes beautifully! 

After baking, portion this into single serving sizes and package it up for the freezer. 

Reheat in the microwave for 2 minutes to reheat.
