I love this Coconut Cream Baked Oatmeal recipe because, just like my Breakfast Bread Pudding recipe, I can prep it the night before so all I have to do is pop it in the oven in the morning. Not only did it take mere minutes for me to throw it together, but my kitchen smelled heavenly as it baked away. This is definitely a dish that can feed a crowd for a brunch or you can do what I did and make one batch to serve twice in one week — just reheat it the second time.

You can substitute maple syrup for the honey if you want to make this dish vegan. You can also top your oatmeal with a touch of cream to make it extra decadent and delicious. No matter how you make it, this divine dish will warm everyone’s heart and tummies in your house! Don’t miss adding tons of toppings like toasted coconut, berries and a drizzle of honey!

My favorite part about oatmeal is that it’s so versatile and great source of important vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. There are tons of ways to prep it too which is great. You can make it baked like this recipe or you could make Refrigerator Oatmeal or Oatmeal in the Crock Pot! There’s also a lot of different flavors you can make it like Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal and Berry Delicious Oatmeal

    I made this this morning exactly as the recipe says. It’s the best baked coconut oatmeal I’ve made at home — and I lived in Hawaii for 5 years! Perfect amount of creaminess and set edges. I forgot to make it the night before and just mixed it this morning and popped it in the oven, and it was still fantastic. Thanks for the recipe!

  2. Made it this morning and it was great! It did take quite a bit more baking time and it never really “fully set.” Just wondering if I should take the water down slightly?! I followed the recipe exactly. A keeper.

  3. What brand of coconut milk do you use? I could not find anything smaller than the 13 oz can, so I used half of that and then cut the water by about 1/2 cup. Even so, it still came out a tad soupy and I had to cook much longer than the suggested time. I would love to know if there is a specific brand of coconut milk that you use so I could follow the recipe a bit more closely next time. Thanks!

  4. I made this a bit more calorie-rich by using light coconut milk instead of water and added chia seeds and pecans. (I’m a nursing mom so need the calories and the ease of something I can reheat throughout the week.) The house smelled INCREDIBLE while it baked and it was absolutely delicious. This is a new go-to recipe for me. I might add some dried fruit next time (maybe mango) to give it a tart component but this was great. Thank you!

  5. This is a family favorite. How should we store leftovers, on the counter or refrigerator? Thanks!

  6. I think the 5.5 oz can of coconut milk is the kind you find in the drink mixer aisle. (Coco Lopez is a brand I remember from college – is that still around?)
