Meet your new favorite make-ahead breakfast. This Chocolate Chip Baked Oatmeal comes together with everyday ingredients — rolled oats, maple syrup, coconut oil, eggs, and a generous handful of mini chocolate chips — and delivers a warm, filling start to the day. It reheats beautifully, making it a dream for busy mornings. Finish it with maple syrup or Greek yogurt and honey, and breakfast just became the best part of your day.
Pour in the milk, maple syrup, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Stir until everything is combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
1¼ cup milk, ⅓ cup maple syrup, 2 large eggs, 3 tablespoon melted coconut oil, 2 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ cup mini chocolate chips
Pour the oat mixture into the baking pan and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the center is set. Allow the oats to cool in the pan for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Serve the baked oatmeal with fresh fruit and a drizzle of nut butter or maple syrup! You can also serve it with turkey sausage or eggs for something savory.
Reheat baked oats in the microwave until warm, or in the oven/toaster oven.
While you can swap out rolled oats for quick oats, I don’t recommend using steel cut oats.
To store: store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week. Can be frozen for up to 3 months. To defrost, allow the oats to sit in the fridge overnight or at room temperature for a few hours.
