Make Blackberry Pecan Baked Oatmeal for breakfast or brunch. It’s an EASY recipe (only 10 minutes prep), and then it’s baked (serves 8).
If you’re looking for an easy to make breakfast dish that has very minimal prep work, I hope you’ll check out this recipe for blackberry pecan baked oatmeal.
I came up with this dish after making a few changes to another of my recipes I’ve used for years, and am vey happy with the results.
You can use fresh (seasonal) or frozen blackberries (unthawed) to make the baked oatmeal, which means this yummy dish can be made any time of year!
Basically you mix the batter, pour it in a baking dish, and bake until done. Doesn’t that sound EASY? Well, it is… and here’s how to make it.

Make The Batter
Preheat the oven to 375° F. and lightly grease an 8″ x 8″ baking dish before making the batter to save time. You want the oven hot and ready to go, because it doesn’t take much time to make the batter.
Place old fashioned oats, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon and salt in a large bowl, and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk (I use 1%), a large egg, and vanilla extract until they are also combined.
Pour the milk and egg mixture into the bowl with the oat mixture. Stir until these ingredients are blended together, then add chopped pecans and blackberries.
If using frozen blackberries, add them to the batter, still frozen. The batter may turn slightly pink in color, but that is okay!
Time To Bake!
Pour or spoon the batter into the greased baking dish. Bake the oatmeal at 375°F. for between 45 and 50 minutes.
The blackberry pecan baked oatmeal is done when firm and “set” on top, nicely browned, and it is fully cooked through.
TIP: To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the top/middle part of the oatmeal. If it comes out clean and free of batter, then it is done.
Serve The Blackberry Pecan Baked Oatmeal
Allow the blackberry pecan baked oatmeal about 15 minutes or more to cool, then cut it into 8 square pieces. We prefer to eat this baked oatmeal warm (not hot), but again, that is your choice!
Sift a small amount of powdered sugar over the top of each piece, if desired. This is optional, but the powdered sugar is a nice decorative touch, and adds a bit more sweetness to this dish.
I hope you have the opportunity to make blackberry pecan baked oatmeal for a family breakfast or brunch. It really does taste wonderful.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you’ll come back again soon for more family-friendly recipes. Take care, may God bless you, and have a GREAT day!

Make Blackberry Pecan Baked Oatmeal for breakfast or brunch. It's an EASY recipe (only 10 minutes prep), and then it's baked (serves 8).
- 1½ cups old fashioned oats uncooked
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1¾ cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups blackberries *fresh or frozen (unthawed)
- ½ cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 375° F. and lightly grease an 8" x 8" baking dish.
Stir oats, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl, until combined.
In separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, and vanilla until combined.
Pour milk/egg mixture into oat mixture. Stir until combined; add pecans and blackberries. NOTE: If using frozen blackberries, add them to batter, still frozen. Batter may turn slightly pink in color, but that's okay!
Pour batter evenly into prepared baking dish. Bake at 375°F. for 45-50 minutes. It's done when firm and "set" on top, browned, and fully cooked through. TIP: To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into top/middle part of oatmeal. If it comes out clean and batter-free then it's done.
Let baked oatmeal cool about 15-18 minutes, then cut it into 8 square pieces. Serve warm OR hot (your choice!) Sift powdered sugar over each piece, if desired. Enjoy!
