What kind of oats should I use?

You will want to use either rolled oats or old fashioned oats.

Can I use steel cut oats?

No, steel cut oats won't work and neither will quick-cooking oats.

Can I make this baked oatmeal vegan?

Yes, substitute the eggs in this recipe with flax eggs. The texture will be a little bit softer, but still delicious!

Should I use fresh or frozen berries?

Both will work, but I usually use frozen berries because it's what I typically have on hand.

What do these baked oats taste like since there's no banana?

Even though there's no banana in these baked oats, they're still incredibly flavorful! Thanks to ingredients such as applesauce, cinnamon, vanilla extract, as well as any mix-ins you choose to add.

Can I eat baked oats cold?

You can, but I highly suggest just popping them into the microwave for 30-60 seconds to warm them up. They taste 100x better!

What size pan should I bake them in?

You'll want to use an 8x8 square baking dish.

Can I double this recipe?

Sure! Just bake in a 9x13 pan and bake for an extra 3-6 minutes.

Are baked oats good to make ahead?

Yes, this is a great meal prep recipe! Make one batch at the beginning of the week and heat it up throughout the week for quick, healthy breakfasts.

Am I able to microwave or air fry this recipe?

I recommend keeping the particular as is and baking it in the oven. However, you can try this recipe for Air Fryer Baked Oats if you'd like!
