From Our Kitchen: Lemon Blueberry Baked Oatmeal

Of all the dishes we serve at Cooperstown Bed & Breakfast, our lemon blueberry baked oatmeal is the recipe guests ask us for most often. It is a delicious, healthy breakfast that is both gluten-free and vegan, and one of those comforting dishes we love making and sharing.

Instead of a bowl of porridge, we bake our oatmeal and serve it in slices. Blueberries add bursts of fruit, lemon brings a little brightness, and maple syrup rounds everything out. It's a hearty breakfast that still feels special.

We serve it with a side of each guest’s choice. In the photo, the baked oatmeal is pictured alongside yogurt topped with fresh blueberries and a crunchy topping, just one way to enjoy it.

Here's a look inside our kitchen, from preparing the oatmeal to the finished bake:

We love hearing that guests enjoyed breakfast, especially when we win over the picky eaters. In a July 2026 Tripadvisor review, Rachel S. wrote:

“Each morning Samantha made a wonderful breakfast and even our two picky little eaters loved breakfast!”

Rachel was describing breakfast at the inn overall, not this oatmeal specifically. Her review also mentioned how much her family appreciated having dairy-free options. Feedback like that means a lot to us.

Breakfast is one of our favorite parts of running the inn. We serve a two-course, made-to-order breakfast, with house-made treats and a changing selection of sweet and savory dishes. Some mornings call for waffles or French toast. Others call for something like this lemon blueberry baked oatmeal.

We enjoy sharing these behind-the-scenes moments because breakfast is more than a meal here. It's part of the experience of staying with us in Cooperstown.
