Strawberry and Blueberry Jam Baked Oats (Vegan)

Delicious, golden and high in fibre and protein, these Strawberry and Blueberry Jam Baked Oats are the perfect meal prep breakfast. They are fruity, oaty and loaded with plant-based and gluten-free goodness.

I love baked oats, and haven’t come out with a new flavour in a long time. So, say hello to this fruity number which is so delicious, packed with frozen (or fresh) strawberries and blueberries and finished off with swirls of strawberry and blueberry fruit spread (100% fruit jam from St Dalfour) which is my favourite. It’s loaded with fibre and protein, too, full of healthy fats and is so easy to make. This breakfast recipe will be on repeat and is ideal for meal prep, too.

What ingredients do I need?

You can see the ingredients with weights in the recipe card below, and see my favourite and recommended products in the “shop the recipe” section.

For the oats:

  • Ripe banana: to naturally sweeten the mix. You can swap this for 100% unsweetened applesauce, if you prefer.
  • Rolled oats: to add texture.
  • Vegan protein powder: I use vanilla flavour, but a berry or salted caramel would work, too. These are also great with almond flour instead or use some oat flour.
  • Chia seeds: to help thicken the mix and add omegas.
  • Ground flaxseeds: to add omegas and healthy fats.
  • Baking powder: for the rise.
  • Cinnamon: for flavour.
  • Plant-based milk: use your preferred milk. I like soya milk with soya beans and water only, for an added protein boost.
  • Dairy-free yoghurt: I use Cocos coconut yoghurt or NUSH protein yoghurt as they are made with minimal ingredients and taste amazing. They are also great for gut health, with live bacteria.
  • Vanilla extract: for flavour.
  • Frozen berries: I kept with the jam theme and use frozen chopped strawberries and blueberries inside the oats.
  • Salt: for flavour.
  • Strawberry and blueberry jam: these are from St Dalfour and are 100% naturally sweetened with fruit and grape juice. They are so fruity and delicious and have been a household staple for me, for years. They have some delicious flavours, so feel free to use your favourite ones.
  • Crushed pistachios: to go on top, these are optional.

Are these gluten-free and nut-free?

These are easily gluten-free, as long as your oats are GF and keep these nut-free by using nut-free yoghurt, milk and leave off the pistachios.

How do I make these?

These are ready in a few steps:

  • Mash the banana: into a mixing bowl.
  • Add in the other ingredients: and stir to a thick mix.
  • Fold in the berries: and pour into a dish.
  • Smooth over the top: so it’s even.
  • Add on spoonfuls of the jam: and swirl through.
  • Bake for 30 minutes: or until well-risen, golden and delicious.
  • Allow to cool for a bit: and then serve with more yoghurt and jam. Or allow to cool fully.

How long will they last?

Once cool, keep these oats in the fridge in a sealed container for 2-3 days or 1 month in the freezer. Allow to defrost and enjoy cold or warm back up in the oven for 10 minutes.
