When life gets crazy, it can be convenient to make or grab whatever is easiest and be on your way. A lot of the time, that means some not-so-healthy meal choices packed with unrecognizable ingredients and lots of added sugar. This is why I’m such a huge fan of one-pan meals. Everything goes in the same pan, is cooked at the same time, and there’s minimal clean up. It doesn’t get much easier than that! Another great thing about them is that they can feed the entire family, or if you’re cooking for one, they’re a great way to meal prep for the week.
One of the prime times that a one-pan meal comes in handy for me is at breakfast. You don’t have to wake up an extra hour early every day to cook and can instead just pop your prepped breakfast in the microwave (or eat it cold) and go. That’s why I love these mixed berry baked oats. They require minimal ingredients, most of which you probably already have on hand. And they’re packed with greens from Earth Genius Mixed Berry Smart Greens.

The product I use in this recipe, the Mixed Berry Smart Greens, is a blend of organic greens, veggies, superfruits, antioxidants, digestive enzymes, organic adaptogenic mushrooms, organic sea greens, and prebiotic Inulin. It tastes absolutely delicious, and I guarantee that nobody will guess your sneaking greens into these oats. They’re sure to beat any store bought insta-oats you find on the shelf.
Here’s What You’ll Need:
-2 cups rolled oats
-1 tsp baking powder
-1 scoop Earth Genius Mixed Berry Smart Greens
-Pinch of salt
-1 ½ cups milk
-2 eggs
-3 Tbsp butter (or coconut oil), melted and divided
-1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)
-1 cup strawberries, sliced
-1 cup blackberries, sliced
Instructions:
Mix the rolled oats, baking powder, Earth Genius Smart Greens, and salt in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the whisked eggs, milk, 1.5 tbsp butter and maple syrup.
Mix the dry mixture with half of the berries (reserve half to top the dish), and evenly spread throughout a cast iron skillet (or 9x9 baking dish).
Pour the wet mixture over the dry and top with the reserved berries.
Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for 35-40 minutes.
Drizzle the remaining 1.5 Tbsp of melted butter over the top of the oats.
