Coconut cookie dough oatmeal – baked in the oven until it is warm and gooey.
With melted chocolate swirled into every bite.
This is a breakfast that will definitely make you want to get out of bed in the morning.
And you can even make it the night before or make extras and freeze leftovers for a rainy day when you don’t want to cook in the morning.
This is a huge reader favorite recipe – it has all the deliciousness of eating a Mounds bar for breakfast!
The coconut cookie dough baked oatmeal can also make a great grab-and-go breakfast.
Take it in the car or pack it into a lunchbox for a portable “fast food” treat that is actually good for you!

Coconut Cookie Dough Baked Oatmeal
(serves 1)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/8 tsp salt
- stevia or sugar of choice
- 1/4 cup applesauce or banana
- optional 4 drops coconut extract
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk of choice or canned coconut milk
- 1-2 tbsp pre-melted coconut butter (Coconut-Free Version)
- optional handful chocolate chips, plus extras for the top
Baked Cookie Dough Oatmeal: Preheat oven to 380 degrees. Combine dry ingredients, then mix in wet. Pour into a small baking pan, loaf pan, or 1-cup ramekin (or, for mini boatmeal cakes, two 1/2-cup ramekins). Cook for 20 minutes or more, until it’s firm. Finally, set your oven to “high broil” for 5 more minutes – or simply just bake longer, but broiling gives it a nice crust. Don’t forget to spray your ramekins first if you want your cakes to pop out.

Hi! I just want to know what kind of chocolate you use for all of your recipes! Thanks in advance!
In the past, Katie has indicated that she uses Whole Foods brand, Enjoy Life and Ghirardelli gold packages.
This looks amazing! It looks really milky in the pictures, though. Did you add cold milk to it? Also, this recipe is the amount for a single person?
Yes, I added milk to the top. And yes, it is single-serving :).
I’ve been trying recipes on your site for awhile now. I’m just now getting around to leaving feedback….I made this coconut cookie dough oatmeal recipe this morning…..It has to be my all time favorite out of all the baked oatmeal recipes I’ve tried!!!
btw I used your website to make my own coconut butter too!
This looks absolutely amazing! A must try for sure! I love how versatile rolled oats are!
I wanted to use your recipe – but make it healthy (er). I substituted half the oats with sprouted buckwheat, skipped the sugar and added blueberries instead of chocolate (sacrilegious. i know). It was super moist, surprisingly sweet and deliciously yummy.
The rest of my family enjoyed your original recipe!
Is coconut oil different than coconit butter? Have only seen coconut oil in stores here.
Thanks,
Marcie
Here’s a link that will hopefully help 🙂

Just made it this morning, so good!
Where can I find quality coconut extract? I love coconut but despise a fake coconut flavor. Amazon doesn’t look like it has anything worthy…
Just wanted to say that I am so happy you are following your dream. It must feel so good when you hear of everyone from all over the place trying your recipes and giving you amazing feedback. I’m just really happy for you, girl! You’re following your passion and making it your life’s journey!! So incredible and inspiring to see every day. 🙂 Yay, Katie!
What is coconut butter & how do I find it? Can’t wait to try this! I love oats & chocolate!

Hi, I made this and added a little coconut in it and on the top. It was DEVINE! But what is the nutritional info for the whole thing?
Hi! I LOVE your blog and have loved every recipe we’ve tried so far! I was wondering, though…is there any chance you might at some point post recipes like this (specifically the baked oatmeal) with the measurements for more servings than one? We are a family of six and I would love to make a big batch of baked oatmeal “muffins” for all of us. I have tried to quadruple recipes before and I think I got mixed up somewhere because it didn’t come out tasting the same. =P That must be the unseasoned baker in me. 😉
Try this recipe:
https://lett-trim.today/2013/01/08/breakfast-oatmeal-cupcakes-to-go/%3C/a%3E%3Cbr /> It can also be baked in a 9×13 pan and cut into squares.
I love coconut, cookie dough and oatmeal… love your recipes and I have pinned this to my pinterest so I can try it out, my list of recipes to try is pretty long 😛
Hi Katie! This looks amazing! I don’t have very much time in the morning, do you think I could make this as overnight oats?
Thanks! <3
We tried this the other day. I didn’t have coconut butter, so we just used the oil. It was so amazingly delicious, and we loved it. I can’t do regular oatmeal because of texture issues, but this has just enough crunch around the edges to make it perfect. So yum! I’m so glad a friend on FB posted this link.
oh dear i need help. the 4 drops confuses me, approximately how much of a teaspoon would that be? i know it’s optional but i love coconut extract but it seems like i use way too much because it gets overpowering and makes my end result pretty bland
