If breakfast isn’t already a priority for you, TikTok is about to change your mind. The first meal of the day doesn't have to be boring, even if you're in a rush and people on the app are trying out bulk recipes that make it easy to plan breakfast. Roasted Berry Oatmeal is the latest recipe to get likes on TikTok, and it helps you start your day with something sweet while being incredibly easy to make.
The #BakedBerryOatmeal hashtag on TikTok has over 197,000 views and is a much-loved corner of OatmealTok. Oat recipes have been viewed over 1.2 billion times on the app, so it seems oat-based recipes are having a serious moment right now. Roasted Berry Oatmeal is also a way for users to add fruit, with a March 2022 OnePoll survey conducted on behalf of Jennie-O finding that 42% of people like to change up their recipes by finding subtle ways to add fruits and vegetables into the mix . Likewise, 40% of people prefer contrasting flavors such as salty and sweet, which can also be achieved by adding different additives to oatmeal.
For the basics of the now popular dish, you will need bananas, oats, chia or similar seeds such as hemp, milk and frozen berries. To add flavor and texture, some people on TikTok add ingredients like coconut flakes, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, or frosting — basically, anything will do.
To recreate the TikTok favorite at home, you'll first need to smash a banana into an oven-safe dish. For recipes like this, it's always wise to use overripe bananas, which crumble easily and ensure sweetness. You will then top it with oats, seeds, and mix it with your choice of milk. After stirring the ingredients together, sprinkle the mixture with your choice of frozen berries and any other toppings you might add, then bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Of course, times and temperatures may vary depending on your baking dish and the measurement method you use.
Below, you'll find some inspiration on how to try baked berry oatmeal at home, including fun ways to customize it to your liking. According to surveys, people think they cook about four meals in a week that are worth posting on social media, so you might want to go ahead and film your roasted berry oatmeal process for TikTok or the 'gram, just in case. The mobile phone always comes first.
