# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It bakes in one dish and feeds a crowd, so theres no standing over the stove flipping individual portions.
  • The coconut gets toasty and crisp on top while the raspberries burst into little pockets of jammy sweetness.
  • You can slice it into squares and grab breakfast on the go all week, or serve it warm with a dollop of yogurt when friends come over.
02 -
  • If you skip the baking powder, the oatmeal will still taste good but it wont hold together when you slice it, so youll end up with more of a crumbly scoop situation.
  • Frozen raspberries release more juice than fresh, so your baked oatmeal might look a little wetter, but it will still set up beautifully as it cools.
  • Dont overmix once you add the wet ingredients, or the oats can get gummy instead of tender and chewy.
03 -
  • Use a light hand when folding in the raspberries so they stay whole and create those beautiful jammy pockets instead of turning the whole batter pink.
  • Let the baked oatmeal cool for the full 10 minutes before slicing, or it will crumble apart, and youll end up with a spoon situation instead of neat squares.
  • Toast extra coconut in a dry skillet for a minute or two and sprinkle it on top right before serving for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
