Baked Oatmeal Cups

A few years ago, while staying in New Mexico, my kids were spending the night with their grandma, so I found myself with a little more time than usual to get our breakfast together. I took advantage of the lazy morning to play with my baked oatmeal recipe.

I take baked oatmeal seriously. Around here, we enjoy it in just about all its forms from Pumpkin Spice Baked Oatmeal to Heart Shaped Craisin Baked Oatmeal.

For this version, I decided to focus on raisins as the primary mix-in. Sometimes the simplest flavors are the best ones.

I knew my husband and I already loved sweet bites of raisin baked into chewy oatmeal. We’re lifelong members of the meal RAISIN Cookie Club, not Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie. Since I’m usually making baked oatmeal in large batches for the whole family, this weekend I decided to try something different.

Instead of baking the oatmeal in a 9 x 13 pan, I used individual ramekins this time. The oatmeal turned out even chewier this way with a delicious crisp crust.

We absolutely loved this version with the slightly toasted oats on top. They have all the comforting chewy hominess of a classic Oatmeal Raisin Cookie but you can eat them with a spoon.

The individual ramekins also transform a humble bowl of oatmeal into a breakfast that feels extra special. Everyone loves individual servings!

Raisin Baked Oatmeal Cups

Oatmeal with Raisins

Making baked oatmeal is so easy and comes out so tasty that I’m sure you’ll become as hooked on it as we have. All it takes is mixing oats, a bit of brown sugar, spices, and raisins together with milk and eggs, then letting it bake in the oven.

While baking the oatmeal in ramekins gives you so many more delicious crunchy crust bites, a tripled recipe will also bake nicely in a 9×13 pan to feed a crowd.

Raisin Oatmeal

You’ll need the following ingredients to make this recipe:

  • old-fashioned rolled oats
  • brown sugar
  • baking powder
  • kosher salt
  • cinnamon and nutmeg
  • raisins
  • egg
  • light flavored olive oil
  • milk

Regular raisins will work nicely in this recipe, but if you are lucky enough to live near a Trader Joe’s, I really like their jumbo raisin medley with seedless golden light raisins, flame raisins, and jumbo raisins. This particular mix is delicious enough to mention specifically.

Baked Oatmeal doesn’t take much time as is but becomes an even faster weekday breakfast when made in advance. Baked oatmeal is an easy make-ahead breakfast that can be stored in the freezer then reheated in the microwave with a bit of water.

You can bake a big batch of oatmeal on the weekend to enjoy then scoop leftovers into the freezer to eat throughout the week. There’s nothing quite like waking up in the morning knowing you already have breakfast covered!

I also love that you can freeze oatmeal cups in individual portions. There’s no waste and everyone can help themselves to a cup of oatmeal when they’re hungry.

If you like the cookie-like taste and texture of raisin oatmeal cups, you’ll also love my Muesli Breakfast Cookies.

For a savory breakfast that’s sure to shake things up, give Pepperjack Green Chile Breakfast Sandwiches a try. These Freezer Breakfast Burritos from Belly Full also sound like a fantastic way to start the day.

These Breakfast Casserole Muffin Cups are another easy make-ahead breakfast that can be served to a crowd or in single portions.

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease (2) 10-12 ounce ramekins or (4) 5-6 ounce ramekins with butter and set aside.

  • Divide the oatmeal mixture between the ramekins. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the oatmeal is lightly browned and a knife inserted into the center should come out mostly clean.

  • Let rest for a few minutes before serving. The oatmeal will be very hot!

FREEZER MEAL: Let the oatmeal cool completely and then cut or scoop into portions. Store the oatmeal in airtight freezer bags or containers. Reheat in the microwave with a tablespoon of water.
If you live near a Trader Joe’s, I LOVE the jumbo raisin medley with seedless golden light raisins, flame raisins, and jumbo raisins. Regular raisins will work as well, but this particular mix is delicious enough to mention specifically.
