Why You’ll LOVE This Recipe

Not only will you love these Chocolate Raspberry Baked oats for their delicious taste and amazing flavor, you will also come back to this recipe over and over again because of its ease of making!

Incredibly, you can mix everything in one bowl. If you aren’t too particular you could even mix all the ingredients right not the baking dish! Does that make this a 0-bowl recipe!?

Ingredients You’ll Need

Although not an ingredient, you will need a 8×8 Glass Dish to make these baked oats in. I have a glass dish that came with a lid. This is an easy way to bake the oats then store!

Chocolate Chips– Use any chocolate chips you enjoy!

Rolled Oats– These are also called Old Fashioned oats. Just DO NOT use quick oats!

Fresh Raspberries- I use fresh raspberries for their great texture and flavor.

In addition, you’ll need some pantry staples including baking powder, eggs, milk, salt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.

How to Make Chocolate Raspberry Baked Oats

This baked oats recipe is easy as can be! All you need is the ingredients, a medium bowl, and a big spoon!

In a medium sized bowl add all your ingredients (plus any optional additions- see Additions and Substitutions for Chocolate Raspberry Baked Oats for ideas) except your raspberries. Thoroughly mix these up. Then, gently fold in the raspberries. We don’t want these to get smashed!

Spray an 8×8 baking dish with nonstick spray then add your mixture in. Move the ingredients around to ensure it is spread evenly in the dish.

Next, bake in the oven for about 35 minutes. Allow this to cool for about 5 minutes. We don’t want to burn your mouth! Cut the oats into 9 squares.

Pop out a slice, top with anything you’d like (I recommend some vanilla yogurt!) and enjoy!

Expert Tips and Tricks

• One of the most important tip I have for you is to ensure you are using the proper type of oats. A layer is removed from quick-oats to allow for them to quick quicker. That is great in a pinch but not for this recipe! Use old-fashioned oats or rolled oats so the oats don’t turn out mushy!
• Don’t skip out on the salt! It may seem strange to add salt to oatmeal but it adds a tremendous depth of flavor.
• I HIGHLY recommend pairing a slice with some vanilla yogurt! The change in temperature and texture really makes for a delicious meal.
• Avoid overcooking. This will result a dry and hard dish.

A Word From A Registered Dietitian

Are you questioning having chocolate chips in your breakfast? A lot of people don’t think having chocolate makes for a ‘healthy’ start to their day. In many cases this may be true but let me give you another perspective!

When a small amount of chocolate chips are paired with whole grain carbohydrates from oats, protein from yogurt, and satiating dietary fat from the milk you’ve got an awesome breakfast.

If you wake up craving something sweet, having chocolate as part of a balanced breakfast can actually set you up for success. Now your hunger and cravings are satisfied!
