Orange Creamsicle Baked Oatmeal

Orange Creamsicle Baked Oatmeal blends rolled oats with fresh orange juice, zest, and maple syrup to create a moist, tender bake infused with citrus notes. The oatmeal firm up with baking powder provides a lightly risen texture, while the topping of a tangy orange yogurt glaze adds a creamy contrast. This dish serves as a wholesome breakfast or snack with a bright orange flavor profile reminiscent of the classic creamsicle treat.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x9 inch pan with oil or nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, pure maple syrup, orange zest, orange juice, melted butter, almond milk and both vanilla and almond extracts until well combined.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the bowl with the wet ingredients: oats, baking powder and salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Pour mixture into prepared pan and smooth top. Bake for 40-55 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown and center is set. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for 10 minutes, while you make the orange glaze.
  5. To make the orange vanilla glaze: in a small bowl, mix together the greek yogurt, powdered sugar, orange juice, zest and vanilla; mix to combine. Add more orange juice if necessary to thin it out so you can drizzle it over the top of the oatmeal. Drizzle over the top of the oatmeal, cut into 6 slices and serve!

Notes

  • To add chocolate flavor, fold in ⅓ cup mini or regular chocolate chips before baking.
  • Incorporate 1-2 tablespoons of chia seeds into the batter for added texture and nutrition.
  • For a holiday twist, mix in 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, ½ cup nuts, and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg.
  • Swirl ¼ cup homemade cranberry sauce into the batter before baking to add a tart and festive layer.
  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries for a summery variation of the baked oatmeal.
