I’ve always been a huge fan of breakfast! I don’t feel like I can start my day without a good meal.
Sometimes I get sick of the same old cereal and milk for breakfast. I decided to switch it up this week and make this Berry Oatmeal Bake. It was AMAZING!
I’ve made it two more times this week because it is so easy and doesn’t seem to stay on the counter for very long before the whole pan is licked clean.
If your family doesn’t finish this in one sitting, these leftovers can easily be stored in the fridge for up to four days. Just reheat it in the microwave for a quick breakfast!
Recipe Ingredient Notes
There’s a good chance you already have the ingredients for this delicious breakfast recipe! Here’s a list of everything you’ll need:
- 2 cups of old fashioned rolled oats — we love Bob’s Red Mill oats for this recipe!
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 ½ cups of berries–we used a frozen berry blend, but fresh berries would work great too.
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups vanilla almond milk
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 banana
How to Make Berry Oatmeal Bake
- Preheat your oven to 375℉ and grease a 9×13″ pan.
- In a bowl, mix together dry ingredients. Oats, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and chocolate chips. Once blended, fold in your frozen berries and dump your dry mix into your greased pan.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, almond milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture over the oatmeal mixture making sure to evenly distribute it. You can shake the pan a little to make sure it is getting distributed everywhere.
- Slice your banana into ¼ inch slices and spread them out over the oatmeal.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until it looks fully cooked. Sprinkle with additional brown sugar and serve warm. We like to top ours with maple syrup!

Did You Make This Recipe?We’d love to hear your thoughts! Leave a review or a question in the comment section below the post.
I get bored with myself for the same ole same ole scrambled egg breakfast that I eat every morning. My 2 and 4 year olds just love oatmeal, they goggle it down. It’s like their starving to death or something, and I feel like all I do is feed the cute little hungry hippos. They will love this!
Can you use regular milk instead of the almond milk?
I just made it and I used regular milk, because I don’t have almond milk. Worked out great for me!
I should try this in the morning! Oatmeal is a staple for us in the winter, but I have not “baked” it yet!
Is it baking power or baking soda?
Regular milk should work just fine too.
Hi Mary! It’s baking soda! We’ll go fix that. Thanks for the heads up!
What are the calories per serving?
I am always back and forth when baking with frozen berries…mostly because I have read (and witnessed) that the water content can have an impact on the end product. Would you please describe the correct/best way to bake with frozen berries (thaw, not thaw, drain, etc)? Thanks!!
Every recipe will vary. It’s best just to follow what the recipe says. The Berry Oatmeal Bake works best with the berries frozen. I made a dessert recipe yesterday and I thawed frozen raspberries first and they bled into the crust. We love using fresh berries when in season! 🙂
Can I half the recipe?
How long would this keep for in the fridge?
It will be the best on the first day, but it should be fine in an airtight container for a few days!
This sounds yum. I am leaving work now and will be making it for dinner tonight. Sometimes breakfast for dinner just seems right. What do you think?
We love breakfast for dinner! Your family will love this!
Made this with regular whole milk and frozen blueberries. It was so delicious. I loved how simple and quick it was to make this. WIll make again!
I thought regular milk curdles in the Instant Pot and we should never use it.
Can you make this the night before?
