For me, breakfast is way more exciting that Christmas dinner. Then again, I’m a breakfast lover through and through.

Growing up there were two things that were always on the table Christmas morning, an egg casserole, my favorite Christmas morning smoothie and usually cranberry orange muffins or some kind of baked good. It was my favorite breakfast of the year, but that also could have been because my mom only made it once a year.

I have quite a few baked oatmeal recipes on the blog, but this Cranberry Maple Pecan Baked Oatmeal is my favorite. My husband happened to be home from work with my cold that I blessed him with the day I photographed it and actually got to have a piece while it was still warm.

It’s usually haphazardly plopped on the plate, no garnishes, no styling and has to be reheated in the microwave. I can’t be bothered to make it look Instagram worthy for a second time. Poor guy, but hey, at least it still tastes good!

After my husband finished the baked oatmeal he came up from working in the basement and told me how good the cake was. Cake? Well, I guess that’s a good thing if I made oatmeal taste like cake! Honestly though, it tastes just like Christmas. By that I mean perfectly sweet from the maple syrup, studded with tons of tart cranberries, nutty toasted pecans and a hint of orange zest to brighten it all up.

It’s so good you could eat it with a spoon and you better believe I did! This Cranberry Maple Pecan Baked Oatmeal is a must to go alongside your favorite egg dish and mimosa on Christmas morning. Enjoy!

    I love baked oatmeals and this cranberry version sounds amazing! Do you think a baked oatmeal would freeze ok? I’m trying to be prepared for postpartum!

      Hi Kelly! Yes, you can freeze the oatmeal after it's been baked. Let it cool completely and don't put the glaze on it before freezing. :-)
