Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, but some mornings I am not conscious enough to make myself something yummy and nutritious to start my day off right. Luckily, I am a creature of habit and can eat the same breakfast for days, even weeks, without getting sick of it. Last week, I enjoyed this Oatmeal Quinoa Breakfast Bake from Monday through Friday, and when it was all gone, I still wanted more. I just couldn’t get enough!
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1 large egg
- 1½ tablespoon coconut oil
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup strawberries, sliced
- Preheat oven to 375 and lightly grease your pan.
- Mix together oats, quinoa, baking powder and cinnamon.
- Pour melted coconut oil over the dry ingredient mixture.
- In a separate bowl lightly beat egg and add in milk and vanilla.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients and fold in berries.
- Bake for 40 minutes.
- Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt and drizzle of maple syrup (for extra deliciousness)
I kept it covered in the fridge all week and just popped it into the microwave for a minute to reheat in the mornings. Easiest breakfast ever!

What’s your favorite quick breakfast?

I made this this morning using up various bags of frozen fruit that were opened. I used peaches, raspberries and blueberries and it was a great mix. I will make this again but even with using the frozen fruit, the oatmeal was pretty dry. I will increase the liquid to 2 1/2 cups and will also add a couple tablespoons of brown sugar or honey rather than drizzling syrup on at the end. Just to make it easier when bringing it in to the office.
Very healthy recipe! Thank you for sharing!
