Can’t wait to try this! Just so you know agave and maple syrup are both also vegan sweetners. Thanks for the inspiration!
Sara
A family favorite since the first time I made it. I was skeptical as well at first 🙂 we have made it over and over the past few years!
Jessica Fisher
Yay! That’s great to hear!

Can these be frozen after they are baked and cut into squares?
Jessica Fisher
Yes, the texture won’t be as good, but you can definitely do that.
Rachel Smith
How should I store leftovers if I don’t want to freeze them? Thanks! This is so good, by the way! We decided to phase out cereal and my kids chose this over cereal everyday this week!
Jessica Fisher
I usually just cover and refrigerate, but I’ve also left it on the counter (covered) for a day or two.
Debbie Fehr
This has become my go to recipe for baked oatmeal. It’s excellent!!!!!!!
Debbie
This looks so good but i was wondering if i could half the recipe and bake in maybe an 8×8 since there is only me eating it and just want to try it out
I have this baking in my oven right now and I cannot wait to taste it! I’ve never made baked oatmeal before, but I have no doubt it’s going to be AWESOME!
Kelly
Just thought I’d add that this works beautifully as muffins. I get 12 good-size oatmeal cakes from this recipe. They also freeze great for a quick single-serve breakfast! About a minute in the microwave, top with a smidge of butter, enjoy delicious hot breakfast on demand! I made it with frozen blueberries last time and it was yummy.
I loved this! There was enough for one left over and I ate it (three days later) and it was still delicious!
Demetria
Thank you for the recipe!
My family enjoyed every bite even without the cream. I had manacotti cooling from the oven while this baked and the kids chose to have the oatmeal for dinner instead. (They’re little, so manacotti is less appealing…we froze most of it in smaller portions for my husband to take to work).
Thanks again! Your recipes are great 🙂
Jessica
@Demetria, aww, shucks. Thanks for the kind words. Glad to hear y’all liked the baked oatmeal!
Paula
Was great with raspberries earlier this year – time to try it with blueberries! Got to get those school morning breakfasts in order! One new baby due any day is also motivation to stock my freezer! Thanks Jessica!
Do we have any idea on the nutritional value? I use my fitness pal and trying to add this
Jessica
I don’t. Sorry.
Kristen
Thanks for the delicious recipe. We have been enjoying this for a couple months now. I usually make it with frozen strawberries since I rarely have raspberries. This morning’s version is baking with strawberries and blueberries. My kids and my husband (a traditional oatmeal hater!) love it. Thanks again!
Kelly
Yummy! I’ve been wanting oatmeal for breakfast, but the warm mornings just don’t mix with hot oatmeal. I threw a handful of sliced almonds and a dash of cinnamon into the batter and it is delicious. It turned out kind of like a light muffin- not as dense as a quickbread or cake, but more fluffy than a chewy granola bar. I plan on warming it up for breakfast for the next few mornings. My hubby approves of it, too!
Jessica
@Kelly, that’s a perfect description! I imagine that it’s great with nuts, but with a nut allergy in the house, we’ve avoided it. Thanks for sharing your tweaks!
Mandy
I made this for breakfast this morning, except I used apples and cinnamon instead of raspberries(only because I didn’t have any). Everybody loved it. I can’t stand the texture of regular oatmeal. I’m so glad that I found this recipe. It was the perfect thing for a Saturday morning. Thank you for sharing.
Paula
Hey! I’m a hard core berry picker, and this looks like another great way to use up some of those frozen wild raspberries of mine! Gonna make two tomorrow, one to feed to the crazy kiddos & one to freeze! Thanks Jessica!
Robin
Is the baking time different when you bake it in muffin tins? Have you tried freezing the “cakes” after they are baked or just before baking?
Jessica
It is shorter. I have to do it again because we’re out and because I can’t find my note. But, I think it was 25 minutes.
Helga
WHen baking in muffin tins, how long did you bake it?
Jessica
I think it was about 25 minutes, but I need to redo to be sure.

Have you tried the flax seed + water substitute for the eggs in baked oatmeal?
Jessica
I have not tried that. Sorry I can’t help!
Betsy
I just made this an give it a thumbs up! I could only find Greek yogurt, and it turned out great.

Yes, that is fine. Or you could make them in muffin cups, bake, and freeze. Method is explained here: http://lifeasmom.com/2012/03/cinnamon-apple-oat-cakes-urs-grains.html

@Kelly, yes, it does. We love them that way as well. I posted that method here: http://lifeasmom.com/2012/03/cinnamon-apple-oat-cakes-urs-grains.html but with apples.
