What is Baked Oatmeal?

Baked oatmeal is a method of cooking oatmeal where you combine rolled oats with eggs and milk and any other flavorings and bake it to create a muffin or cake-like breakfast.

The texture is like a hearty bread or muffin and it’s so good with toppings like peanut butter, honey or fresh berries. This texture also makes it a great breakfast to take on the go.

Why Make Baked Oatmeal?

Baked oatmeal is one of our go-to ways to eat oatmeal because it’s almost like eating cake for breakfast. Baked oatmeal is also a great make-ahead breakfast idea that takes no time to reheat when you’re ready to eat.

How to Make Morning Glory Baked Oatmeal

For the full recipe, scroll down to the recipe card for a list of ingredients and instructions.

Preheat & Prep

First, preheat the oven to 350ºF then spray an 8×8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Mix Dry Ingredients

Add the dry ingredients to a large bowl and whisk until completely combined.

Mix Wet Ingredients

Place all the wet ingredients (except for the coconut oil!) to another bowl and mix until combined. 

Why wait on the coconut oil? You’ll want to wait to add the melted coconut oil until right before you transfer the batter into the baking dish to ensure that it gets evenly mixed in and doesn’t solidify first.

All Together Now

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. And then finally add the coconut oil to the batter and mix.

Bake to Perfection

Transfer the batter into the baking dish and bake at 350ºF for about 30 minutes or until the top begins to brown.

Slice & Enjoy!

Remove from the oven and let cool before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Storage Recommendations

Once your baked oatmeal has fully cooled, we suggest slicing it into single servings and placing into an airtight container.

Store your baked oatmeal in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. While you can leave your baked oatmeal out overnight, they will last much longer in the fridge.

To Freeze: To freeze this morning glory baked oatmeal, let it cool completely. Then tightly wrap it with a piece of tin foil and remove as much air as possible. Freeze for up to 3 months.
