If you’re looking for a cozy, nourishing breakfast that feels like baked oatmeal but keeps things grain-free, this Strawberry Coconut Breakfast Bake is it! Packed with simple, wholesome ingredients, it’s a family favorite and perfect for busy mornings.
This recipe reminds me that healthy breakfasts don’t have to be complicated. Strawberries, coconut, bananas, chia seeds, walnuts, and just a hint of cinnamon come together to create a naturally sweet and satisfying meal. It’s also Paleo, gluten-free, and loaded with healthy fats, fiber, and protein to keep you full and energized.
As a nutritionist, I can’t stress enough how important it is to start your day with a nourishing breakfast that actually keeps you full. This recipe is loaded with healthy fats and fiber, which help balance blood sugar and keep those mid-morning energy crashes away. I love pairing this with a couple of eggs or some homemade breakfast sausage for a complete, satisfying meal.
I’m often asked for easy breakfast ideas that aren’t eggs or toast. This one checks all the boxes. It’s great for meal prep and freezes beautifully, so you can enjoy a grab-and-go breakfast any day of the week. Also, for added fiber, I love tossing in chia seeds in breakfast and snack recipes like this.

Can i use freeze dried strawberries in place of fresh? Also, can I grind up the nuts as I have a 1 year old and chopped nuts are a choking hazard?
Yes, you can use freeze dried strawberries. It won’t be as sweet, but won’t affect the recipe. You can also grind the nuts!
