These rich and indulgent Nutella Baked Oats feel much naughtier than they actually are and they’re the perfect chocolatey, breakfast treat. If you prefer a drier texture to your baked oats, then we’d recommend using just one egg instead of two – they’ll be absolutely delicious either way!
Not only are our Nutella Baked Oats great for breakfast, but they’re also fantastic when served for dessert. We love ours served with some aerosol cream or even some sweetened, whipped quark.
If you want to make these Nutella Baked Oats ahead of time, then they freeze really well and can be easily defrosted and reheated, which means they’re fab for those busier mornings!

Hiya!
I have made this delish nutella baked oats, but I put them in seperate cake tins to make several small ones. What would the calories be then if I made 6?
Please helppppp
SharonMonday 4th January 2021
Hi Grace, this recipe serves 1 and contains 540 calories. If you divided the same mixture between 6 small dishes it would mean that each small dish would contain 90 calories. Do hope this helps and we’re so glad you liked the recipe.

Would Greek style yogurt work well?
SharonThursday 17th December 2020
Hi Tanya, we haven’t tried this recipe using Greek style yogurt but it should work if your yogurt is a similar consistency to natural yogurt.
It’s worth noting that Greek yogurt has had lots of the whey strained out of it to make a very thick yogurt, whereas Greek style yogurt has had alot less whey strained out and is therefore a bit thinner.
So make sure to use Greek style yogurt to give the best chance of success. Thanks for getting in touch with your question and hope you enjoy this recipe.

What kind of Oats did you use? Or can you use?
Instant, Quick cooking, 1 minute, Steel cut ???
LisaMonday 7th December 2020
Hi Lisa
Any standard porridge oats work for this recipe. It may overcook if you use instant oats, although that isn’t something we have tried. Hope this helps

Just wanted to check that a single whole 16cm tin is 1 portion?
HollyTuesday 29th September 2020
Hey Sally, the Nutella Baked Oats recipe serves 1 person so all the nutritional information is correct for 1 serving. Hope that helps!

Hi Hilary, I have just double checked the Nutella Baked Oats recipe and the points are correct on the page. Have a look at this guide which shows how we work out our nutritional information https://pinchofnom.com/how-to-work-out-calories-and-points-in-a-recipe/

I added both teaspoons of nutella to mine and turned them into oat bars. They still taste amazing and come in handy for a quick snack or part of breakfast on the go. Absolutely gorgeous. I love them
LisaTuesday 15th September 2020
That sounds like a great idea, Bobbi!
Thanks for the tip!
LouiseMonday 31st August 2020
Could you add protein powder to this?
HollyTuesday 1st September 2020
Hi Louise, it’s not something we have tested for the Nutella Baked Oats. You would need to alter the nutritional information accordingly and you may find you need to add more liquid as it may become quite dry. Here is a link to our guide for working out nutritional information: https://pinchofnom.com/how-to-work-out-calories-and-points-in-a-recipe/
