Description

This Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal is a warm, comforting breakfast that combines the flavors of cinnamon rolls with the hearty goodness of oats. It’s a quick, simple recipe that bakes to a fluffy, satisfying dish perfect for one serving, offering a healthy alternative to traditional cinnamon rolls with options to customize using applesauce, pumpkin, yogurt, or mashed banana for moisture and sweetness.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (45g)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/16 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup applesauce (60g) (or pumpkin, yogurt, or mashed banana)
  • 1/4 cup water (60g)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup (22g) or stevia to taste
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp almond butter or coconut oil, optional (15g)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1 spoonful raisins or chopped walnuts, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375° Fahrenheit (190° Celsius). If you prefer, you can also bake this recipe in a microwave or a preheated toaster oven, adjusting time accordingly.
  2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a one-cup ramekin, heat-safe dish, or mini loaf pan with oil, or line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  3. Mix Ingredients: Stir together all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Then, whisk in all the wet ingredients until a smooth batter forms. Optionally, fold in raisins or chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor.
  4. Bake the Oatmeal: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared ramekin or dish. Place it on the center rack of the oven and bake for fifteen minutes. If using a microwave, cook on high for 1 to 3 minutes until the oatmeal is fluffy; cooking times may vary based on microwave wattage.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool briefly before serving. You can top it with your favorite frosting or enjoy it plain for a cozy breakfast treat.

Notes

  • You can substitute the applesauce with pumpkin, yogurt, or mashed banana based on your preference or dietary needs.
  • Optional toppings like raisins or chopped walnuts add extra texture and flavor.
  • If you want a sweeter or more indulgent dish, consider adding a cinnamon roll–style frosting after baking.
  • Adjust sweeteners to taste, such as using stevia instead of maple syrup for a lower-sugar option.
  • Try making Tiramisu Overnight Oats for another easy, flavorful breakfast alternative.
