Reasons You’ll Love This Recipe:

This Blackberry Baked Oatmeal is perfect for easy breakfasts. It’s simple to make and can be enjoyed warm or cold. It’s great for a healthy brunch but also easy enough to meal prep for busy mornings!

• High in Fiber: between the oats, flax seeds, and blackberries, there are some naturally high fiber foods in this baked oats!
• Protein – there are naturally 9 grams of protein per slice, no protein powder required! So easy to pair with eggs or Greek yogurt for a balanced, protein-packed breakfast.
• Delicious: sweet, but not overly so, with the blackberry flavors complemented by sweet vanilla and warm cinnamon.
• Reheats Well: whether you’re reheating in the microwave for ease, or in the air fryer to make it crispy, you have options and they all work!
• Freezer Safe: slice into squares and freeze for a later breakfast so future you can thank you.

Ingredient Notes & Substitutions:

For a full ingredient list with quantities, please check out the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

• Old-Fashioned Oats – make sure they’re old-fashioned for recipe accuracy! Quick oats and steel cut oats require different liquid ratios and baking times.
• Ground Flax Seed – adds more fiber, healthy fats, and helps with the consistency of the final baked oats.
• Greek Yogurt – adds moisture but also protein.
• Milk – use any kind you prefer to drink.
• Blackberries – you can use fresh or frozen.
• Honey – a little for sweetness! You can also use maple syrup, brown sugar, or your favorite non-nutritive sweetener.
• Cinnamon – adds warmth and flavor.
• Vanilla – adds a cozy, subtly sweet flavor.
• Baking Powder – helps leaven the mixture to create the best texture.
• Eggs – helps bind the baked oatmeal, and adds more protein and nutrients.

How to Make Blackberry Baked Oatmeal

For complete instructions, please check out the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

Whisk all the wet ingredients together, then stir in the dry ingredients.

Stir in the blackberries, then pour into a greased 8×8-inch baking dish and bake!

Tips and Variations

• Check for doneness by looking for golden brown edges and the oats should seem set (not overly firm, but also not jiggly).
• Add some chopped nuts – roasted almonds, chopped pecans, walnuts, or even pumpkin seeds – it adds a great crunch and some healthy fats!
• Pair with protein when serving. I love to top with Greek yogurt, pair with some scrambled eggs, or grab and go with a simple protein shake.

Meal Prep: Storing & Reheating

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Alternatively, the baked oatmeal can also be frozen in individual portions for up to a month.

Thaw overnight in the fridge, if frozen. To reheat, use a microwave for around 1 minute (exact times will vary based on your unit) or make it crispy in the air fryer, at 350 for 4-5 minutes (again, exact times will vary based on the size and strength of your unit).
