Cranberry Orange Baked Oatmeal

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Oatmeal is one of the healthiest choices you can make in the morning, and this cranberry orange baked oatmeal is filled with warm spices to start your day right.

Baked oatmeal is made with old-fashioned oats, milk, and eggs to create a soft and chewy casserole with a crisp top, similar to bread pudding.

The best news is that baked oatmeal is incredibly easy to prepare. Simply mix all the ingredients together, pour into a pan, and bake. I like using a round cake pan, but you can also use a square 8×8 or 9×9 pan to make slices like a brownie.

Round pan of baked oatmeal

This dish was inspired by the baked oatmeal I had at a little Amish cafe out near Lancaster, where I met up with my former college roommates. They served it with steamed milk, which made the meal even cozier.

I was under the impression that my husband despised oatmeal of all kinds, but once he tried this baked oatmeal, he asked about 10 times when I would be making it again.

How to Store Baked Oatmeal

Fully cooked and cooled baked oatmeal can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

You can also cut baked oatmeal into individual servings and freeze until you’re ready to eat.

No matter how you store your baked oatmeal, just be sure to enjoy it warm!

For an even easier morning prepare the oatmeal in the evening, store in the refrigerator overnight, and bake in the morning.
