If I omit the coconut will the texture suffer or will it be fine if I omit it? Should I replace the coconut with something else?
Just add a few more oats!
I really want to bring this camping with us..Wondering if I should bake it at home, cool completely and store it in a foil container to reheat at our campsite. Do you think that would that work? Thanks!!
I think that will work!
If I used coconut oil instead of the vegan buttery spread, would it still work the same? Should I use the same amount?
Yes, I would use the same amount, it should be fine!
I am always making my breakfast in advance because I am seriously clumsy in the mornings, haha! Baked oatmeal is one of my favourite makeahead breakfast – especially if it’s filled with yummy fruit!
Baked oatmeal as always been a favorite of mine. Love this blueberry version!
Thanks, Gayle!
I was just saying yesterday how it seems that as soon as a new month starts, it’s half over! The thought that May will be here soon is unbelievable. I love baked oatmeal and this version looks so good with the blueberries and banana! I bet the coconut adds lots of great flavor, too!
Thanks, Kristine! I know, I’m getting alarmed at how fast time flies!
YES, I April has flown right by, I can’t even believe it! Congratulations on being finished with your taxes! I’m almost finished but need to review one last time before pushing the submit button. Agh, taxes are stressful and do require all the cookie eating + wine drinking.
This baked blueberry oatmeal looks amazing! Perfect for brunching on over the weekend!
Thanks, Julia! Ugh, good luck, I HATE doing taxes so much!
