Hands-down, this is the best baked oatmeal I’ve ever had.  It’s studded with a mix of berries and naturally sweetened with frozen bananas and pure maple syrup.  The flavor is amazing and the texture might remind you a little of bread pudding. Honestly, this banana baked oatmeal is so good you might be tempted to eat it for dessert!

Baked Oatmeal Recipe

  • Oats. We use ld fashioned rolled oats for this recipe. 
  • Eggs. A couple of eggs are added to help to hold the ingredients together.
  • Butter: You can use regular unsalted butter or vegan butter for this recipe, which adds a delicious buttery flavor.
  • Frozen bananas.  Sliced frozen bananas are added for a little sweetness and flavor.  They practically melt while baking, making the oatmeal tender and delicious.   If you use fresh bananas instead, then you’ll want to mash them a bit.  
  • Berries. I use a mix of fresh berries which gives this oatmeal a delicious flavor.  
  • Pure maple syrup. Pure maple syrup is our sweetener for this recipe (along with the bananas).  We also drizzle a little over the top with the walnuts for an amazing crispy topping.
  • Almond coconut milk. I like to use an almond and coconut milk blend, but you could use almond milk, oat milk or whatever vegan milk you prefer.  (I use an almond coconut milk blend by Califia found in the refrigerated section at markets).
  • Cinnamon. A little added cinnamon just adds to the amazing blend of flavors.
  • Pure vanilla extract. Also adds to the incredible mix of flavors.
  • Chopped walnuts. Chopped walnuts with an extra drizzle of pure maple syrup and dabs of vegan butter are added at the end to create an incredible topping.

How to Make Baked Oatmeal with Fruit

How to Serve this Oatmeal Breakfast Bake

This berry oatmeal bake is amazing piping hot fresh from the oven, but I’d never turn my nose up to it served cold.  It’s THAT good!  It’s amazing on its own and doesn’t need to be served with anything at all, but if you like, you could serve it with a dollop of vegan butter and a drizzle of pure maple syrup, or a dash of vegan milk or a dollop of yogurt. Or go ahead and serve it for dessert with a scoop of frozen vanilla yogurt.
