Add the frozen cherries, and mix well.

Split the mixture equally between 3 or 4 ramekins.

Place into the air fryer and cook for 20 minutes. If using ramekins, divide them into equal portions. Very carefully remove from the air fryer and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve with a bit of maple syrup or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Tips for the Best Air FryerBaked Oatmeal
- Allow space around the ramekins, which will help the air fryer cook up the baked oatmeal.
- Serve with some fresh fruit, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.
- Add some more spices today. I added ground cinnamon and coriander, but you can add even more.
- For best results, use rolled oats.
How To Reheat Oatmeal
As I mentioned before, this is a great breakfast meal prep. I often make mine while I am cleaning up after dinner.
To reheat the Air Fryer Oatmeal, you can either use the microwave or stovetop or place it back into the air fryer and reheat. I would add a couple of drops of cream and mix, then air fry at a low temperature, 300 degrees F, air fryer setting, until heated through.
What Are Chia Seeds?
I added some Chia seeds to this recipe to add more protein since it’s a great way to get some added protein to this oatmeal bake.
If you do not have any or do not wish to add them, omit them from the recipe, and follow the recipe as written.

Can I Use Silicone Muffin Liners?
Add the batter to your muffin tin or liner, and fill about 2/3 way full. For best results, check about halfway during the cooking process.
Make sure that they are fully cooked before removing them.
Can I Use Non-Dairy Milk?
Yes, you can use any dairy-free cream alternative; you can also use almond milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or rice milk.
The measurements would be the same.
Can I Use Steel Cut Oats?
No, it would help if you used rolled oats or quick oats for this recipe. Steel oats will not work as they need a longer cooking time.
