Mixed Berry Protein Baked Oatmeal
A cozy, make-ahead baked oatmeal packed with juicy mixed berries and a gentle boost of protein. Tender in the middle, lightly crisp at the edges, and perfect for busy mornings—slice, reheat, and enjoy all week.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats (old-fashioned; use certified GF if needed)
- 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder (about 25–30 g)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs (or 2 flax eggs for vegan)
- 1 3/4 cups milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or butter (plus extra for greasing)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with coconut oil or nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just to combine.
- Fold in the mixed berries (add frozen berries straight from the freezer—no need to thaw).
- Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, until the top is golden and the center is set.
- Cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm as-is or with yogurt, milk, or nut butter. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days or freeze individual portions for up to 2 months.
