Baked Oats With Quick Oats
I have found that making baked oats with quick oats makes for the most fluffy texture. It prevents the baked oats from becoming gummy and dense.
What Milk To Use For Baked Oats
We love making baked oats with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Some other great options are regular unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened oat milk, or your milk of choice.
How To Make Cinnamon Roll Baked Oats
Blend the quick oats or rolled oats into oat flour.
Then, add the baking powder, salt, sweetener of choice, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and unsweetened vanilla almond milk to the blender and blend. Next, lightly pulse in the egg.
After that, lightly spray an oven-safe ramekin with coconut oil. Then, pour the batter into the ramekin.
From there, place the ramekin on a baking sheet and bake the baked oats in the oven.
To make the icing, combine the powdered sugar, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and vanilla extract. Once the baked oats are cooked, let them slightly cool, drizzle the icing on top, and enjoy!

Hi Laurie, for this baked oats recipe, there is no flour and this recipe is gluten-free. The quick oats will be blended into oat flour. Our cinnamon roll mug cake has flour in it, which may be the confusion. I hope this helps!

I LOVE your recipes, especially your baked oats. However, I have to watch my cholesterol. Would flax eggs work in this recipe?
Hi Joie, I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying our recipes! I am sure a flax egg or chia egg in place of the regular egg should work fine. However, it may alter the texture of the baked oats slightly. I hope you enjoy these cinnamon roll baked oats!
