Nani's Berry Oatmeal Bake
A cozy, golden baked oatmeal packed with juicy berries that makes every morning feel special.
recipesbynani.comThis berry oatmeal bake is one of my favorite ways to start the day. It turns simple pantry staples into a warm, comforting breakfast that feels like a treat but is full of wholesome ingredients.
My best tip is to use a mix of berries if you have them. Frozen berries work just as well as fresh ones, so you can enjoy this all year round even when berries are not in season.
🧺 Ingredients
- 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk of your choice
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh or frozen berries
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a 9 by 9 inch baking dish.
- 2
In a large bowl, mix together the oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- 4
Pour the wet mixture into the dry oat mixture and stir until everything is well combined.
- 5
Gently fold in most of the berries, saving a few to scatter on top of the bake.
- 6
Pour the mixture into your prepared dish and top with the remaining berries.
- 7
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
- 8
Let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving so the oats have time to firm up.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can easily reheat individual portions in the microwave or enjoy them cold with a splash of milk. If you want a little extra crunch, sprinkle some chopped walnuts or pecans over the top before baking.
