Celebrate strawberry season with this healthy no added sugar strawberry baked oatmeal made with simple ingredients and bursting with strawberries! It's a delicious make-ahead breakfast for busy summer mornings that can be enjoyed hot or cold. (gluten-free, nut-free)
Who else is excited about strawberry season?! I just love this time of year for all of the fresh produce. Sweet, juicy strawberries have always been a favorite of mine, and they tend to make an appearance in all of my food during the summer months.
You all know how much I love oatmeal, so I don’t stop eating it in the summer just because it's hot out. And it is HOT here in Texas. We're already in 105+ temperatures! So I'm a little more strategic with heating up the kitchen in the summer. That means instead of firing up the stove every morning, I like to prep my oatmeal ahead of time in the form of baked oatmeal.
Why You'll Love This Healthy Strawberry Baked Oatmeal
With this delicious strawberry baked oatmeal, you can cook once and have nutritious breakfasts all week long. All you have to do is pop a square in the microwave in the mornings and you're good to go! Or you can eat a piece cold straight from the refrigerator on days that it's REALLY hot out. What could be easier?
This oatmeal is a delicious and healthy way to start the day with no added sugar, plenty of heart healthy and filling fiber, and extra protein from creamy Greek yogurt. (It's also great for nursing moms and babies!) It's a great way to use those sweet summer strawberries.
How To Make Strawberry Baked Oatmeal
- In a large bowl, stir together oats, flaxseed and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt, milk, eggs and vanilla. Stir into the oat mixture. Gently stir in chopped strawberries.
- Pour oatmeal into a lightly greased baking dish. Top evenly with sliced strawberries.
- Bake 25-30 minutes or until set. Remove from the oven and let cool before cutting into squares.
- Top oatmeal with more yogurt before eating.
How To Store and Reheat Baked Oatmeal
Baked oatmeal can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days. To reheat it, simply place a piece on a microwave safe plate and microwave for 60-90 seconds. Top with a scoop of yogurt and enjoy!
To freeze, cut oatmeal into individual pieces and freeze in a freezer-safe bag or container. Remove pieces as needed and thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
