Mixed Berry Baked Oatmeal
Prep: 15 mins Cook: 30-35 mins Total: 45-50 mins Servings: 9
This was one of the very first baked oatmeals we ever created. And as soon as we realized that it was one of our best breakfast meal prep ideas, we couldn’t stop creating more versions of them. This baked oatmeal features frozen mixed berries for natural sweetness, fiber, and antioxidants.
Ingredients
2 ¾ cups gluten-free rolled oats
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
⅓ cup pure maple syrup (use 3 tablespoons for less sweet)
½ cup mashed banana (1 ripe banana)
2 large eggs (See Notes for egg-free option)
1 ½ cups Kalona Supernatural Organic Plain Kefir* (or milk of choice)
¼ cup melted butter (½ stick)
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon fine salt
1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 ½ cups frozen berries (do not thaw)
* Egg-free option: Mix 2 tablespoons ground flax meal with 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Mix well and let stand 5-10 minutes to thicken before using in place of the eggs in this recipe.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375℉. Spray a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking oil spray.
In a bowl, combine all of the ingredients.
Transfer to the prepared 9×9-inch dish. Top with a few additional frozen berries, if desired.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the center is just set. For a more firm, bar-like, oatmeal bake, bake for 33-35 minutes.
Let set for 5 minutes before serving.
