Introduction

This Raspberry Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal is a comforting and nutritious breakfast that’s easy to prepare. Packed with fresh raspberries and sweet chocolate chips, it’s a delicious way to start your day.

A square piece of baked oatmeal bar sits on a white speckled plate with scattered chocolate chips and raspberries on top. The oatmeal bar has two visible layers: a golden-brown oat base mixed with dark chocolate chips and bright red raspberries, and a textured, crumbly surface. A dollop of white cream is on top of the bar with a single raspberry and some chocolate chips on it. In front, a gold fork holds a bite-sized piece showing the soft oatmeal and fruit inside. The plate is on a white marbled surface with a glass container of dark syrup in the background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

2 ¾ cups old fashioned rolled oats (285 g) (certified gluten-free if needed)
1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional) (10 g)

1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon fine salt

¼ cup maple syrup or honey (70 g)
½ cup plain yogurt (may substitute applesauce or banana for dairy-free) (120 g)

2 large eggs (110 g) (See Notes below for egg-free option)
1 ¼ cups milk of choice (300 g)
¼ cup melted unsalted butter (60 g) (use coconut oil or plant-based butter for dairy-free)

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup fresh raspberries, more for topping (may substitute frozen – do not thaw)
¼ cup chocolate chips, more for topping

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375℉. Spray a 9×9 or 8×8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Step 2: In a bowl, combine the oats, chia seeds, baking powder, salt, maple syrup or honey, yogurt, eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
Step 3: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries and chocolate chips.

Step 4: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top with a few additional raspberries and chocolate chips for extra flavor.
Step 5: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Step 6: Let the baked oatmeal sit for 10 minutes before serving to allow it to firm up.

Step 7: Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped topping, yogurt, and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Tips & Variations

For a dairy-free version, substitute yogurt with applesauce or mashed banana, and use coconut oil or plant-based butter instead of regular butter.
To make this recipe egg-free, replace the eggs with a flax or chia egg (1 tablespoon ground flax or chia seeds mixed with 3 tablespoons water per egg, let sit to thicken).

Try adding chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for added crunch.
Use frozen raspberries straight from the freezer without thawing to prevent the batter from becoming too watery.

Storage

Store leftover baked oatmeal covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds or warm in the oven at 350℉ for 10-15 minutes. You can also freeze portions wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and foil for up to 2 months; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
