Baked oatmeal recipes are awesome. They are a great way of enjoying a warm breakfast that is as nutritious as tiramisu overnight oats, as delicious as vegan blueberry breakfast bars, but that is warm and comforting. This vegan baked oatmeal is the simple version of my Lemon Blueberry Baked Oatmeal, Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal, or Strawberry Baked Oatmeal.
Ingredients and Substitutions for Vegan Baked Oatmeal
All you need are:
Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats – you can use quick oats too but the texture is better with large pieces of oats. Chia Seeds or flaxseed if preferred. Feel free to use white chia seeds or black chia seeds both have the same properties. Yogurt of Choice or Nut Butter – I like coconut yogurt or soy yogurt for a boost of protein. Banana – if you don’t like bananas, you can use the same amount of unsweetened apple sauce, pumpkin puree, or sweet potato puree. Cinnamon – for flavor. Mixed Berries – fresh or frozen.
It’s super easy to make a one-pan baked oatmeal that is vegan and nutritious.
How To Make High Protein Vegan Baked Oatmeal
There are many ways to add proteins to your baked oatmeal by adding:
1/4 cup of peanut butter or almond butter 2-3 tablespoons of your favorite plant-based protein powder – it will dry out the recipe a bit so you’ll need to balance that by adding 1/4 cup of extra almond milk. 1/4 cup of hemp seeds. 1/4 cup of protein yogurt – if so reduce almond milk by 1/4 cup.
Flavoring Baked Oatmeal
You can create a range of baked oatmeal flavors by changing some ingredients in the recipe.
Use different fruits – apple cubes, strawberries, peaches, blueberries. Use nut butter – almond butter or chocolate nut butter for a chocolate flavor. Add cocoa powder. Stir in some spices like pumpkin spices.
