Baked oatmeal is one of our favorite breakfast treats. Make a batch ahead for quick weekday breakfasts or serve it at your weekend brunch. It’s delicious, hearty and easily customizable!

It has been a little while since I shared a new baked oatmeal recipe. But this is a great time of year to make a warm, hearty and healthy breakfast so it seemed time to make another batch.
Baked oatmeal is one of my favorite things to make with my little guy. The measurements don’t have to be super exact, the techniques are not difficult and it is something he can more or less do on his own with a little direction.

All I have to do is tell him how many scoops of each ingredient and he can put the whole thing together. He loves the independence.
It is a great way for him to work on his counting without knowing it as well. He got new cooking utensils for Christmas too, so it was a great opportunity for him to use he new measuring spoons and whisk.

Of course we love to eat the results as well. It seems a lot of baked oatmeal recipes are dense and chewy. We prefer our baked oatmeal to be almost a bread pudding consistency.
It is hearty enough to hold together and be served in pieces, but still has a soft melt in your mouth feeling. You have to try it to believe it!
If you are a baked oatmeal love like we are, you should check out some of our favorite flavors. If you don’t think you like baked oatmeal or haven’t tried it, you really need to check them out!
We love all sorts of different varieties, but the brownie baked oatmeal, pumpkin pie baked oatmeal and oatmeal raisin cookie baked oatmeal are some of our favorites!

What a fun recipe to make with your little guy! It sounds super tasty, and a perfect way to use some of those cranberries I have stashed away in the freezer.

I am on the hunt to find things that I can substitute for granola/fruit and nut bars in the morning. I need something that is already made so that I remember to eat it. I am working on some breakfast cookies that I can take with me on the go, but this would be perfect to have in the frig for those mornings that I work from home! And I am a bread pudding consistency person, this sounds perfect! Picking up the ingredients. Excited to try this!
