Variations

Which Oats To Use: Make baked oats with rolled oats or quick oats. The oats will be blended into oat flour. If you have oat flour, feel free to use that instead of blending the oats. Also, make sure not to use steel-cut oats in this recipe as they do not blend finely enough. We like using quick oats because we found that they produce the fluffiest baked oats.
Use Your Milk Of Choice: These blueberry baked oats can be made with your milk of choice. You can use regular milk or dairy-free alternatives. We love to use unsweetened vanilla almond milk, regular unsweetened almond milk, or unsweetened oat milk in this recipe.
How To Sweeten Baked Oats: To sweeten these baked oats, you can use sugar, honey, maple syrup, or your sugar-free sweetener of choice.
