How to Make Berry Baked Oatmeal (Step-by-Step Instructions)

This easy berry baked oatmeal comes together in just a few simple steps.

Instructions:

• Preheat the Oven
  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s ready when you are.
• Combine the Dry Ingredients
  In a 9×13-inch baking dish, add the rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Give it a gentle stir to combine. This saves you from using an extra bowl!
• Whisk the Wet Ingredients
  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until smooth and well combined.

• Mix Wet and Dry Together
  Pour the wet mixture into the baking dish over the oats. Stir gently until everything is well mixed.
• Add the Berries or Fruit
  Sprinkle your favorite fresh or frozen berries evenly over the top of the oatmeal mixture. You can use a single type of berry or a mix!

1. Dot with Butter
   Slice 3 to 4 tablespoons of butter into small pats and scatter them evenly over the top of the berries. This adds a rich flavor and helps the top turn golden as it bakes.
2. Bake
   Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes or until the oatmeal is set and the top is lightly golden.
