If there is one thing I love, it’s a dinner that feels like takeout but requires almost no effort. This One Pan Baked Ramen Noodles with Vegetables is exactly that kind of meal.

Instant ramen noodle stir-fry with broccoli, red bell peppers, and carrots in a white baking dish.

You get creamy coconut ginger noodles, colorful vegetables, lots of savory flavor, and everything cooks together in one pan with almost no prep work.

The best part? No boiling noodles separately, no stir frying vegetables, and no standing over the stove trying to time everything perfectly.

This is one of those lazy dinners that somehow feels comforting, fresh, and surprisingly impressive considering how little work actually goes into it.

Why This Recipe Works So Well

This recipe takes everything people love about takeout noodles and turns it into a true dump and bake dinner.

Instead of boiling noodles, preparing sauce separately, cooking vegetables in another pan, and assembling everything afterward, the noodles cook directly in the baking dish while absorbing all the flavor from the coconut ginger sauce.

Using ramen blocks keeps things easy while also making the cooking process much more reliable compared to traditional rice noodles.

The result is creamy noodles, colorful vegetables, minimal cleanup, and a dinner that tastes like significantly more effort than it actually requires.

If you enjoy easy dinners like this, you’ll probably also enjoy Creamy Italian Chicken Pasta, Instant Pot Harissa Mac and Cheese, or Mediterranean Chicken and Rice Bake.

It’s packed with vegetables and protein-rich edamame, and is satisfying while still feeling light. Edamame is a good source of plant protein and dietary fiber, making it an easy way to add more nutrition to simple meals (USDA Food Data Central).

Ingredients You’ll Need

This recipe uses simple ingredients but still creates lots of flavor.

Ramen Noodles: Regular ramen blocks work perfectly because they soften quickly and absorb flavor really well. Discard the seasoning packets.

Coconut Milk: Creates a creamy sauce without needing heavy cream while balancing the salty flavors.

Soy Sauce: Adds savory flavor and gives the noodles that takeout-style taste.

Sesame Oil: Small amount, big flavor. This makes the dish taste much more like restaurant noodles.

Garlic and Ginger: These create most of the flavor in the sauce without needing a long ingredient list.

Frozen Broccoli: Convenient, affordable, and cooks perfectly directly from frozen.

Bell Pepper and Carrots: Add color, texture, and sweetness.

Edamame: Adds protein and makes the meal more filling.

Green Onions: Add freshness and finish the dish.

How to Make One Pan Baked Ramen Noodles

1. Build the sauce:

In a large baking dish, whisk together the coconut milk, vegetable broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup or honey, garlic, and ginger until smooth.

2. Add the vegetables:

Add the broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, edamame, and green onions. Stir everything so the vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce.

3. Add the noodles:

Place the ramen blocks directly on top of the vegetables and gently press them down so they are partially submerged in the liquid.

4. First bake:

Cover tightly with foil and bake at 400°F for 25 minutes.

5. Stir and continue baking:

Remove from the oven and break apart the ramen noodles, stirring everything together. If the noodles are still firm in the center, cover again and bake for another 10–15 minutes.

6. Rest:

Once the noodles are fully tender, cover the dish and let it rest for 5 minutes so the sauce thickens and fully absorbs into the noodles.

7. Serve:

Top with sesame seeds, extra green onions, and a squeeze of lime before serving.

Substitutions

Ramen Noodles: Regular ramen blocks work best here, but instant stir fry noodles, thin spaghetti, or thin wheat noodles can also work. Avoid thick pasta shapes since cooking times will change.
Coconut Milk: Use full-fat coconut milk for the creamiest sauce. Light coconut milk works but creates a thinner sauce.
Vegetable Broth: Water works perfectly fine if you do not have broth.
Soy Sauce: Tamari works for gluten free. Low sodium soy sauce can also be used if preferred.
Maple Syrup or Honey: Brown sugar works too. You only need a little sweetness to balance the sauce.
Frozen Broccoli: Swap with spinach, snap peas, cabbage, cauliflower, or additional bell peppers.
Bell Pepper: Can be replaced with extra broccoli, snap peas, cabbage, or zucchini.
Edamame: Swap with tofu, chickpeas, or simply leave it out.
Fresh Ginger: Ground ginger works if needed. Use about 1 teaspoon.
Sesame Oil: Highly recommended for flavor, but can be omitted if necessary.
Lime: Rice vinegar or a small squeeze of lemon also works.

Recipe Tips

Do not fully submerge the ramen blocks or they can become overly soft
Frozen vegetables work perfectly here and make prep much easier
If the noodles look slightly dry after stirring, add a small splash of water before covering again
Do not skip resting the noodles after baking because this helps finish cooking everything evenly
