Vegan Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal
A hearty breakfast packed with decadent flavors of a cinnamon roll, topped with a buttercream glaze. Vegan Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal is the perfect treat for breakfast.
Who doesn’t love a warm gooey frosting topped cinnamon roll? Cinnamon Rolls are my weakness, but I know it is not the healthiest item to have for breakfast on a weekly. I plan for a cinnamon roll a few times a year so in between those times I enjoy Vegan Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal. It is a delicious breakfast to satisfy my craving for a cinnamon roll and I can enjoy as often as I want without the guilt.

This baked oatmeal is packed with fiber, protein and is gluten-free. It is delicious with or without the buttercream glaze and is a breakfast your whole family will enjoy. My kiddos love when they can have this for breakfast. So, go ahead fill your house with the aroma of a freshly baked cinnamon roll and bake Vegan Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal. It is super simple to mix up.
- First, mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl.

Could steel cut oats be used?
Hi I haven’t used steel cut oats with baked oatmeal. The texture would be different and more liquid would be necessary. If you try it let me know how it turns out! 🙂
