Blueberry Pecan Baked Oatmeal
Made with wholesome oats, juicy berries, and pecans, this blueberry baked oatmeal makes a comforting breakfast casserole.
Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)
- ⅔ cup packed dark brown sugar
- 1 cup chopped pecans, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1⅔ cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the dish
- 2½ cups blueberries, divided
- Lightly sweetened Greek yogurt, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease an 8-inch or 2-quart baking dish with butter.
- In a medium bowl, combine the oats, brown sugar, ¼ cup of the nuts, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well.
- In another bowl, break up the eggs with a whisk; then whisk in the milk and vanilla until well combined. Add the milk mixture to the oat mixture, along with the melted butter.
- Scatter 2 cups of the blueberries evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the oatmeal mixture over top and spread evenly. Sprinkle the remaining ¾ cup nuts and ½ cup blueberries on top. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, until the pecans on top are a rich brown color and the oats are set. Let cool for at least 5 minutes, then serve warm or at room temperature with Greek yogurt, if desired.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: This dish can be frozen after baking, tightly covered, for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to serve it, defrost in the refrigerator for 24 hours then reheat it, covered with foil, in a 325°F oven until hot.
