Craving something savory for breakfast but you’re a creature of habits and don’t want to say no to oats? Savory Baked Pizza oatmeal is your solution! That’s right baked oatmeal holds so much more potential beyond just being a blank canvas for fruit or maple syrup.

Hear me out. This pizza oatmeal is like a savory quiche or breakfast bake but with oats. It’s packed with all our favorite pizza flavors and comes with a cheesy vegan Parmesan or mozzarella topping. An easy crowd-pleasing breakfast bake that is easy to make and tastes delicious. The oatmeal base uses chia egg to hold all ingredients together.

Honestly, this baked oatmeal has been my to-go meal for weeks now because I have been craving savory for breakfast, so I came up with this “genius” idea: combining two of my favorite foods into a single recipe: Vegan Pizza Savory Baked oatmeal!

Endlessly adaptable!

This is an easy no-fuss recipe that you can play around with as you’d like. Feel free to make it spicy by adding some crushed red pepper. I call for garlic powder, fresh basil, and dried thyme here to keep it classically “pizza,” but any other dried Italian herb mix will do. This one really gives you the same satisfaction as a naughty slice of pizza for breakfast but other than pizza, it is so filling! No sugar in this baked oatmeal, should you want to cut down on that after the holidays. I know it sounds odd but you’ve gotta try this recipe.

And feel free to mix things up by adding whatever spices you have. I’m thinking cajun spice or your leftover stuffing spice might be delicious as well. You do you !

Top the oats with some vegan parmesan or vegan mozzarella then add a layer of tomatoes.

Then bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 c) for 30-35 minutes. Check the center if it’s not too soft and sticky, that means it’s done.
