I love this recipe for strawberries and cream baked oatmeal. Do you know those little packets of instant oatmeal? I used eat those all the time before school as a kid and I remember always being excited when I got the strawberries and cream packet. This baked oatmeal recipe is so much better than those little packets, you’ll be hooked!

While this recipe is called strawberries and cream baked oatmeal there’s actually not any cream but instead milk. For this recipe you can easily substitute your favorite milk. Whether you prefer regular milk, soy milk, coconut milk, or almond milk this recipe will be just as good. I have even used oat milk and oatmeal before and it was actually quite good!

💭 Why you’ll love this recipe

Not only is this recipe easy, it’s also freezer friendly! That’s right you can freeze it. I’ll share instructions on how to make this freezer meal below.

Another reason why I love this recipe is that it can be tailored to fit all types of dietary needs. As I mentioned above you can substitute a milk of your choosing and you can also use a gluten free version of oats to make this recipe gluten free.

🍓 Ingredients needed

Ingredients needed to make strawberries and cream baked oatmeal. Each ingredient is labeled.

To make this strawberry baked oatmeal, you will need:

  • Oats: The base of the baked oatmeal.
  • Brown sugar: To sweeten the oatmeal a little.
  • Milk: This is a very versatile recipe in regards to milk. You can use regular milk, coconut, almond, or soy milk.
  • Eggs: You’ll need two large eggs or you can also use flax eggs.
  • Baking powder and baking soda: To give the baked oatmeal some rise.
  • Salt: You’ll need just ½ a teaspoon of salt.
  • Vanilla extract: If possible, I recommend using pure vanilla extract.
  • Fresh strawberries: You’ll need 1 ½ cups of fresh strawberries for this recipe.
  • Honey (for serving): I love drizzling some honey on top of this oatmeal right after I take it out of the oven. It is so good!

🍒 Do I have to use strawberries?

If you don’t have any strawberries, you can also use blueberries, peaches, or blackberries in this recipe.

⏲️ Recipe instructions (step by step guide)

A collage with four steps which is a step by step guide on how to make strawberries and cream baked oatmeal.

Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees and spray a 8 x 8 pan or deep dish pie pan with non-stick spray.

In a large mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients (image 1). Mix well (image 2). Next, add in the wet ingredients except for the strawberries (image 3).

Mix well and then carefully stir in the chopped strawberries (image 4).

Spread into the 8 x 8 pan or deep dish pie pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Serve with honey or extra milk, if desired.

📖 Is this oatmeal freezer friendly?

You can absolutely prepare this recipe without baking it, let it defrost and then bake it. Freeze it in an aluminum pan or freezer safe casserole dish with a lid, plastic wrap, or foil. Be sure to seal it tightly if you’re using plastic wrap or foil. Let it thaw in your refrigerator and then bake for 30 to 35 minutes (allow a little extra baking time since it will cold).

💬 Can I prep this recipe the night before?

This recipe is perfect for prepping the night before. You can mix it and leave it in your fridge overnight to bake the next morning.

      Yes, you can add in the strawberries then freeze. Just make sure the pan you freeze it in is freezer safe 🙂
