This recipe will surprise you! Oatmeal? No, this is not your grandmother’s oatmeal. You will love it! It’s oatmeal with a makeover.

I’ve eaten oatmeal many different ways, and this is by far my favorite. Naturally sweet, warm, creamy, and good for you!

Don’t like oatmeal? Try this.

Seriously.

Baked Apple Blueberry Oatmeal

A delightful change from plain oatmeal. This dish is quite sweet; if you don’t like sweet oatmeal, you can easily half the sweetener.

2 cups non-dairy milk
2 cups applesauce
1/3 cup pure maple syrup - OR 1/2 cup chopped dates (see note)

2 cups regular rolled oats - or gluten-free oats if you want this to be gluten-free
1 cup frozen blueberries

Instructions

Stir together all ingredients, except blueberries and oats in a large mixing bowl.

Gently stir in blueberries.
Pour into an oiled 2-quart baking dish.
Bake uncovered at 375°F for 45 minutes or until lightly browned.

Notes

If using dates, they should be chopped small so their sweetness is distributed throughout the dish.

Make Ahead Tip: This dish can be baked the evening before and kept in the refrigerator until the next morning when ready to reheat.

Variation: Stir 1/2 cup chopped nuts in with the oats.

This is truly delicious! We were fortunate to have the opportunity to eat what you see in the picture, and it was the best oatmeal We’ve ever eaten! This will become a regular on our menu.

This looks fantastic! I am a huge fan of baked oatmeal and have several recipes of my own. I love how you give the option to cut the sweetener and replace with more fruit. I do that a lot. Thanks for the recipe. 🙂

This sounds so yummy. I would like to try it for breakfast tomorrow but I only have quick oats. Will they work?

  Quick oats will work in this recipe, but the end result will be a lot mushier. If you don’t mind your oats a bit mushy, then that should be fine. But if not, you may want to wait until you have some regular oats.
