Why We Love This Vegan Baked Oats Recipe
- Easy to make – a dump-and bake breakfast that takes just minutes to prep!
- Versatile – you can use whatever fresh or frozen berries you have on hand.
- Protein packed – there’s plant-based protein all the ingredients, from the oats to the nuts and seeds.
- Filled with Omega-3s – the chia seeds in this recipe provide a healthy dose of Omega-3 fatty acids; no fish oil necessary!
One Dish Family Breakfast!
This insanely practical baked oatmeal with berries is the perfect way to cook one breakfast for all. If you’re a parent then you might be familiar with the many early morning breakfast requests from the recently awaken little bunnies. This “easy does it” recipe will do the trick! You can just pop it in the oven and play around with the toppings (many extras allowed!).
If I’m being honest, this recipe is not only embraced as a breakfast option in my house, it’s also a quick snack or mid-afternoon pick me up for the whole family. That’s the beauty of this concoction, you can easily dress it into a decent dessert. With baking, the oats become so compact that it almost resembles a cake or a pie. It’s seriously that good!
When you’re in the mood to switch things up, but you still want something oat-y, these apple cinnamon steel cut oats are a delicious option!
Vegan Baked Oatmeal Toppings {More Options}
Now, for the fun part! Let’s discuss breakfast-friendly oven-baked oatmeal toppings.
Believe it or not, there is a difference between toppings. It’s not the same to find perfect toppings for ice cream than it is for a “first meal of the day” oatmeal. The latter should be (ideally) nutritious and energy giving while being uber-delicious. Does that make sense? Let’s explore some of our exciting options and combinations:
- banana & cinnamon
- apples & raisins
- mango & coconut flakes
- dates & walnuts
- raspberry jam & coconut yogurt
- chocolate chips & sliced almonds
- peanut butter & raspberries
