This Berry Chocolate Coconut Baked Oatmeal is packed with goodness and makes for the perfect easy breakfast or snack.
This recipe is a great addition to your Sunday meal prep so that you can have grab and go breakfasts all week long. I typically like to pair a slice with greek yogurt + nut butter on top or some hard boiled eggs on the side for extra protein to keep me full for longer. If I don’t have time to add anything with it, I’ll just grab two slices and I am good to go!
What is baked oatmeal?
Baked oatmeal is basically a muffin and oatmeal hybrid! You take all of the ingredients you would normally add to oats and bake it in the oven creating the most DELICIOUS cake/muffin-like texture.
Can I use different berries/toppings?
Of course! While I love the combination of the chocolate, coconut, and berries, feel free to use whatever toppings you enjoy. Bananas, chopped nuts, or even some granola for a crunch are some great options.
Is this a healthy snack option?
Yes! Believe it or not, I actually prefer these for an afternoon or mid morning (pre-workout) snack! I typically love a savory breakfast like avocado toast and eggs but love a sweeter snack like this. Win, win!
Can I make this recipe vegan?
I haven’t tried this recipe with an egg substitue yet, but if you are looking to try— my guess is that flax eggs will work. To make a flax egg, simply mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let sit in the fridge for 10 minutes. If anyone decides to try it out, let me know how it goes!
Does this recipe freeze well?
Yesssssss 1000%! I always freeze a few slices. Simply thaw in the refrigerator overnight or microwave in 15 second intervals until warm straight from the freezer.
What you will need for this recipe:
- banana— the spottier, the better! The banana adds some natural sweetness and a delicious texture to this recipe.
- oats— I typically go for organic because oats are high in glyphosate. Gluten-free if needed.
- eggs
- honey or maple syrup— optional if you don’t think the toppings will be enough sweetener!
- non-dairy milk of choice— I typically use almond, cashew, or oat milk.
- sea salt and baking soda
- shredded coconut, strawberries, blueberries, and chocolate chips— for topping. Frozen or fresh berries work!
