Introducing my NEWEST baked oats flavour… Biscoff Baked Oats (with Raspberries!).
The tart raspberries are a match made in heaven with the sweet, creamy Biscoff. Meal preppable baked oats really are life-changing – I like to bake a batch on a Sunday and have delicious breakfasts and snacks on hand during the week. Oh, and your kitchen will smell amazing!
In a world where you can eat anything, eat Biscoff. Okay, okay, maybe don’t over-indulge (it’s not the healthiest of foods), but Biscoff is one of my absolute favourite vegan spreads. Combine it with Raspberry and you’re on to an absolute winner. Add the combination to Baked Oats and you’ve reached elite level breakfasts that taste like cake!
How to Make Biscoff Baked Oats – Expert Advice
I’m sure you absolutely dying to know how to make my biscoff baked oats. So here’s the methodology to get them PERFECT every time!
Firstly, we’re going to have to preheat our oven to 180°C (350°F) – while it’s heating up, grease or line an 8×8” tin or dish.
Then, in a large bowl, mash the bananas.
Once the bananas are suitably mashed, add the remaining ingredients (apart from the raspberries) – and mix until well combined.
Stir in the raspberries (reserve a few for the topping), and pour the mixture into the 8×8 lined tin.
Add the reserved raspberries on top, along with the biscoff biscuits, and place in the oven for approximately. 35 minutes
Once finished, take out of the oven and let cool.
Slice as you wish – I prefer squares…
Once cooled, you can microwave your biscoff spread and drizzle on top! To do so, simply melt 1-2 tablespoons in the microwave and pour on your baked oats!
What the Heck is Biscoff?
Imagine the best biscuit. Like, literally, the best biscuit you can think of…
Biscoff biscuits are right up there. If not the top dog…
And as luck would have it, the wonderful people at Lotus decided to make a spreadable version too. Awesome!
Biscoff is basically a combination of cinnamon and brown sugar (and a few other things, obviously), that come together to create the most beautiful caramelised taste and texture.
Oh, by the way, If for some reason you can’t get your hands on Biscoff spread (but you can find the biscuits), Spatula Desserts have made a homemade version of it! It looks amazing! Or, you check out the video below…
Ingredients Needed For My Biscoff Baked Oats Recipe…
You’ve made a good choice today… You’re making my Biscoff Baked Oats. Go you! You’ll need the following:
Ripe bananas: Bananas add natural sweetness, moisture, and a nice but subtle flavour to the dish. As they ripen, the starches in bananas convert to sugars, making them sweeter and helping to bind the ingredients together. So make sure you use ripe bananas only!
Rolled oats: Oats are the main ingredient and provide the base for the baked oats. Rolled oats have a slightly chewy texture when baked, which helps improve the texture of these biscoff baked oats! They’re also a good source of complex carbohydrates, fibre, and various nutrients.
Almond or cashew butter: Nut butters add richness, creaminess, and a nutty flavour to the dish. They also help to keep the ingredients together – as well as adding a little protein hit!
Biscoff Spread: Biscoff Spread is a key ingredient that provides that signature caramelised flavour. It adds a beautiful and distinct warmth and depth of flavor to the baked oats.
Baking powder: Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps the baked oats rise and become light and fluffy. It creates a more airy and tender texture.
Salt: A pinch of salt enhances and balances the flavours in the dish, bringing out the sweetness and preventing the baked oats from tasting flat.
Milk of choice: Milk adds moisture and creaminess to the baked oats, helping to create a desirable texture. It also contributes to the overall richness of the dish. You can use dairy free (I do – my personal preference is oat or soy milk).
Raspberries (fresh or frozen): Raspberries provide a pop of colour, freshness, and tartness to the dish, balancing out the sweetness from the Biscoff Spread and bananas.
Biscoff Biscuits (optional): The broken pieces of Biscoff Biscuits add a lovely crunchy texture contrasting the softness of the baked oats. They also reinforce the desired Biscoff flavour!

Frequently Asked Questions
I can’t find Biscoff! What can I use instead?
If you’re incredibly unfortunate and unable to source any Biscoff spread (or biscuits), there are a few alternatives to consider!
Firstly, in some countries Biscoff is called ‘Speculoos’ – so if you can find that, then great! If not, don’t worry…
Secondly, consider using ginger bread biscuits instead! If you don’t have those, you could try peanut butter and a little sugar and cinnamon – but the flavour is going to be somewhat different.
