We eat a lot of oatmeal in this house, a lot. Two of children would eat 3 packets of the instant oatmeal each morning if I let them. While yes oatmeal is great for them, so much better than sugary cereal, the instant kind gets to be expensive, so I try to cut it with some quick oats to make it go a little farther.
I also eat oatmeal, but the quick oats instead of instant, usually with berries and some sliced almonds. But even that gets old after a while.
I tried making a baked oatmeal. It was a hit, it tasted great and filled you up fast.
Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal
Cream together the sugar, eggs and butter. Then add in dry ingredients alternating between the milk and oats for easy mixing. It will be quite wet/watery. Don’t worry though, those oats will do their stuff. Line a 9×13 pan with parchment paper, and spread the batter out evenly.
Bake in oven preheated to 350 for 35-45 minutes, bake it until solid with a little spring in it at a touch, and brown.
Mix together some icing sugar, a little vanilla, and water to make a icing that you can drizzle over it.
Cut into squares and serve. Best while its warm. This is filling, and taste great.
If you want thicker pieces bake in a 9×9 pan, you’ll just have to cook it closer to the 45 minutes.

It really was! It’s hard to believe how filling a small piece is too!
That looks delicious! The recipe is similar to my scrappy baked oatmeal, but it would be a good one to use when we are out of fruit (like we are now…). Great recipe! I’m sharing it.
It definitely was good! Even my oatmeal hating child loved it.
This looks SO delicious! I love baked oatmeal and the cinnamon roll flavor sounds amazing!
Oh my word! This looks really yummy! Baked oatmeal is on of my favorite breakfasts! Pinning to try later. #SmallVictories
This is the only one I’ve tried but we all really liked it so I’m going to try some more. So much better than my kids wanting to eat sugary cereal for breakfast.
Hi Ashley, your baked oatmeal looks and sounds amazing 🙂 I don’t think I’ll be able to make a one-to-one vegan version of this, but I’ll try something similar to this, I really like the cinnamon roll flavour 🙂
