You’ll definitely want to save my Funfetti Cake Batter Baked Oats, Apple Pie Baked Oatmeal, and Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal for later too.

Can I Make Berry Oatmeal With Frozen Berries?

Absolutely! I made my healthy berry baked oatmeal with all frozen berries. I used a combination of blackberries and strawberries and it turned out perfectly! Use whatever type of berries you have on hand. You don’t even need to thaw or drain the berries beforehand. Win Win!

So what makes this berry baked oatmeal healthy? Here’s the shortened version:

Vegan plant-based protein powder (here is the brand I use and love)
Oats (find the health benefits of oats here.)
Plant-based milk (high in potassium and iron)
Berries (Loaded in vitamins and antioxidants)
Cinnamon (antioxidant-rich. Read all the benefits of cinnamon here)
Pink Himalayan Salt (rich in minerals and less processed than table salt. Read more about the benefits of pink salt here.

Baked Oatmeal Without Eggs or Milk

This berry oatmeal recipe uses absolutely no eggs or regular milk! Just like in my Matcha Latte recipe, we use plant-based milk as listed above. Feel free to use any milk you have on hand though! And even if you don’t have milk, you can sub with good ole’ H2O (water). The oats and protein powder make this oatmeal bake soft, chewy, and slightly fluffy without having to add any eggs.

How to Make Berry Oatmeal

As I just said above, you don’t need any eggs or flax eggs for this baked oatmeal recipe. It’s completely vegan and plant-based. The beauty of this oatmeal recipe is that you can use whatever protein powder or milk you have on hand! Even if you don’t have milk, you can sub it for all water. That’s how easy and simple it is!

This high protein baked oatmeal recipe is made with my very favorite unflavored plant-based protein powder. And if you’re looking for more great vegan breakfast options, check out these 12 Easy Vegan Protein Breakfasts!

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Total Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 Cup Mashed Banana (About 2 Overripe Bananas) (See Note 4 for sub options)
2 Cups Rolled Oats (quick cooking also work)
1 Scoop Unflavored Plant-Based Protein Powder (See Note 3 for sub-options)
¼- ⅓ Cup Honey or Pure Maple Syrup (See Note 3 if using flavored/sweetened protein powder)
½ tsp Cinnamon
⅛ tsp Pink Himalayan Salt
1 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (or milk of choice)
1 Cup Water
1 Heaping Cup Mixed Berries (fresh or frozen) + a few more for topping

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.

3. Gently stir in berries and pop a few on the top.

4. Place in the oven to bake at 350 F. for 35-40 minutes until golden brown (mine is perfect after 40 minutes).

5. Let baked oatmeal cool for a few minutes or until set and serve with nut butter (code “shh20”), protein cream cheese icing, fresh berries, banana slices, or your favorite milk!

Notes

Liquid: You can use any liquid of choice for this recipe. I use a combination of plain unsweetened almond milk and water to make the oats thick and creamy. You can swap the milk for all water or do a different combination. I have found that this combo works perfectly though!
Oats: Most oats are gluten-free, just make sure by checking the packaging! I love this brand. You can use rolled or quick-cooking oats. Steel-cut will not work.
Any plant-based protein powder works! If you’re using unflavored or flavored or sweetened protein powder, I would suggest omitting or adding the honey or maple syrup to taste. Whey protein powder does also work, but may change the texture a bit. I’ve had many people use whey protein powder and love the results!
Don’t have bananas? You can sub the bananas with 1 Cup pumpkin puree or 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce. Adjust the amount of honey/maple syrup to taste if needed.
