What’s not to love about this quick, prep-ahead-of-time Berry Cobbler Baked Oatmeal recipe? It’s just sweet enough, it’s easy to make and it’s loaded with nutrition that will keep you full all morning long. (Insert praise hands here!)
Ever since I discovered the gloriousness that is baked oatmeal, I just can’t stop. I won’t stop. Because I don’t want to. I’m officially obsessed with baked oatmeal.
This Berry Cobbler Baked Oatmeal tastes like a very healthy, very hearty berry cobbler or pie. It’s just sweet enough, but the small amount of maple syrup isn’t overpowering and doesn’t add a lot of extra sugar per serving. In all, it comes out to about a teaspoon of maple syrup per serving of this baked oatmeal.
This recipe includes so many high fiber, gut friendly foods, like oats, chia seeds and of course, the berries and cherries. I’m sure the reason this dish is so filling and satisfying is because of the whopping 10 grams of fiber that you get in a serving. (Again, praise hands…)
I use a frozen very cherry berry blend from Trader Joe’s to make this baked oatmeal, but you can use whatever you find. If you can only find frozen berries, then just use that. Either way, you can’t go wrong.
I love this baked oatmeal served with a tablespoonful of almond butter on top, or a scoop of plain Greek yogurt if I want a bit more protein. And if I want just a bit more sweetness on top without more added sugar, I’ll add a sprinkle of my favorite brown sugar stevia.

Could I omit the maple syrup to have no sugar?
Hi Beth! I haven’t tried it that way, but you certainly could give it a go! It might be a little bit tart but it is only 2 Tbsp of maple syrup, so it probably won’t make too much of a difference! Please let me know how it goes if you try it out that way!
