  • Use rolled oats and not quick oats or steel cut oats for this oatmeal recipe. 

How to store: 

Store these single serve baked oatmeals in the fridge for up to 5 days. When you are ready to eat them, put them in the microwave for a few seconds to heat the oatmeal back up. If the ramekins you have don’t come with lids, I recommend covering them with these silicone covers when storing them in the fridge. 

Frequently asked questions: 

Is this baked oats for one low calorie? 

The calorie count of this baked oatmeal recipe will vary depending on the fillings you put in them. To make it lower in calories, use fillings such as fresh fruit rather than chocolate. 

Can I make this baked oatmeal with no eggs?

I have not tried making this oatmeal without the eggs or with any egg replacements. I am not confident it would work out as well but if you try it please let me know how it goes. 

What is a single serving of oats?

A single serving of oats can be anywhere from 1/4 up to 1/2 cup of rolled oats. 

Are baked oats good for you?

Baked oatmeal is a healthy breakfast option. Oats contain many important vitamins and minerals and are full of soluble fiber and beta-glucan which has numerous health benefits including helping reduce cholesterol and helping to regulate blood sugar. 

What’s the difference between rolled oats and quick oats?

Rolled oats, also known as old-fashioned oats, are oat groats that are steamed and rolled into flakes. The larger surface area means they will cook more quickly than steel-cut oats. Quick oats on the other hand are cut into smaller pieces, rolled thinner, and steamed longer so they cook more quickly but don’t end up with as much texture as rolled oats.
