Have your cake and eat it too—every morning—with this fun and filling baked oats recipe inspired by the latest TikTok trend. If you don't have a small blender or food processor, use quick oats and stir the batter together by hand. It will have a more rustic, toothsome texture, but will taste just as celebratory!

Ingredients

½ cup rolled oats
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup low-fat milk (see Tip)
3 tablespoons vanilla or plain low-fat Greek yogurt, divided (see Tip)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon rainbow sprinkles, divided
1 teaspoon honey

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Place oats, brown sugar, baking powder, milk, 2 tablespoons yogurt and vanilla in a small blender or mini food processor. Blend until the oats are finely chopped.
Coat 3 silicone or paper muffin cups (placed in a standard muffin tin) or a 6-ounce oven-safe ramekin or baking dish with cooking spray. Pour the batter into the cups or ramekin. With your fingers, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon rainbow sprinkles evenly over the batter.
Bake until domed and golden brown, about 15 minutes (if using muffin cups) or 20 minutes (if using a ramekin). While the oats bake, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon yogurt with honey to make frosting.
Let the oats cool slightly, then top with the yogurt frosting and remaining sprinkles.

Tip

You can substitute any type of milk or yogurt, including nondairy options.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
