Blueberry Baked Oatmeal Recipe
Description
This Blueberry Baked Oatmeal Recipe starts by mixing rolled oats and chopped pecans with cinnamon, baking powder, and salt to create a flavorful oat base. Almond milk combined with maple syrup, ground flaxseed, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract is poured over the mixture, then blueberries are gently folded in. Baking uncovered at 375°F until golden and set produces a tender but cohesive dish with bursts of blueberry throughout.
The baking process softens the oats while the topping becomes lightly crisp, making a texture contrast. Pecans contribute a nutty crunch, and the vanilla and cinnamon add warmth without overpowering the blueberries' freshness. The recipe is versatile as a make-ahead breakfast or brunch option, served warm with yogurt or extra maple syrup as preferred.
It stores well refrigerated for several days, making it suitable for batch preparation. Reheating individual servings in a microwave preserves the cozy texture. With options to substitute different milks, fruits, or nuts, this recipe can be customized to available ingredients and taste preferences.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ½ cup pecans roughly chopped, chopped
- 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups almond milk
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Flaxseed ground
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375° F.
- Place the oats, pecans, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt in the baking dish and whisk to combine.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the almond milk, maple syrup, flaxseed, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour over the oat mixture and stir to combine. Fold the blueberries and gently press down to make sure all the oats are covered with wet mixture.
- Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until the top of the oatmeal is golden and the mixture is set, about 35-40 minutes. Remove and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
- Serve with yogurt and maple syrup, if desired.
