I'm not a fan of overnight oats or just a bowl of oatmeal on its own but I love a good oatmeal bake! It is a perfect dish to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea in the morning and there are so many ways to dress up some baked oatmeal. This blueberry banana oatmeal is simple to make and delicious. If you are on the purple program for MyWW it is a great recipe for you to enjoy, just 1SP a serving. On both blue & green programs, it is 5SP per serving.
What type of oats should I use?
Quick oats or rolled oats are the best to use when making a baked oatmeal recipe.
Milk substitutes..
I used 1% in this recipe but you can use almond or cashew milk if there are nut allergies, or any non-dairy milk will work fine.
What sugar-free syrup do you use?
I'm in Canada and I purchase the E.D.Smith sugar-free syrup, it is a pancake syrup and has a slight maple flavoring, however, any sugar-free syrup can be used, feel free to add a flavored one for a little added pop to the recipe.
Storing & reheating..
Baked oatmeal is always best fresh but it will be good in the fridge for a few days and you can reheat it in the oven or microwave. You can freeze this oatmeal recipe, let thaw when ready to eat, and reheat in the oven or air fryer.
Tips for the Best Baked Oatmeal:
- Don’t leave out the cinnamon or vanilla it adds to the overall flavor.
- Let it cool a little for easier cutting.
- This baked oatmeal is best served warm, you can simply reheat leftovers in the oven, air fryer, or microwave.
 Oatmeal Toppings:
Want to add a little something to your baked oatmeal, try some of these toppings.
- Fresh fruit- berries, banana
- Nuts- a sprinkle of almonds, walnuts, or pecans would be delicious with this
- Coconut flakes
- Maple syrup or honey
- Whipping cream
- Chocolate chips
- Dried fruit

Notes

This is so yummy! Granted when you first make it it’s the best time to eat it because it’s fresh. After that definitely wanna warm it up in the microwave. I did add some light Cool Whip about 2 tablespoons and drizzled with zero sugar maple syrup. This was absolutely amazing! Three points total for me because of the Cool Whip. Filling. I am on the purple plan. Thanks so much for this recipe! I will be making it again!

Just thought I should let you know that according to the calculator this recipe for one serving is 2 points. I used everything you did and I can’t figure out how you got one. I would love it if it was one but unfortunately it’s 2..If I’m wrong let me know 🙂

Hi Colleen, please know that I build all my recipes in the WW app based on my products used, the only ingredients that have points for purple is the sugar (2) and milk (6) my syrup for 2Tbsp was 0SP

It looks like i am using the same except not sure what brown sugar you are using to give you only 2 pts per tablespoon. I have both the splenda brown sugar blend (3 pts for 2 tb) as well as i have rogers brown sugar which is the same and tried both. Is there one I can use that is less?

HI my WW App shows a Tbsp unpacked brown sugar as 2SP
