Ingredients

Servings

Baked Oatmeal Recipe Base

  • 2 banana mashed equal to 3/4 cup (see notes, medium over-ripe
  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups non-dairy milk of choice
  • 2 ¼ cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt fine sea salt

Walnut Banana Bread

  • 2/3 cup walnut chopped, toasted
  • 1 ground cinnamon additional teaspoon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Blueberry 

  • 1 blueberries heaping cup, fresh or frozen

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip

  • 3 tablespoon peanut butter all-natural creamy
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips I used Lily's

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ºF and line an 8x8 or 9x9 pan with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl mash bananas until only small clumps remain. Add in flaxseed meal, vanilla and milk. Allow to rest for a few minutes.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Add oats, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Stir to combine. Then add your desired mix-ins.
  4. Bake: Pour oatmeal mixture into prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until edges are golden and middle is set. 
  5. Serve: Allow oatmeal to rest for 30 minutes before serving if you'd like bars. Or feel free to serve with a spoon immediately. Add favorite toppings like nut butter, blueberries, chocolate chips and/or maple syrup. 

Notes

  • Sugar – I did not include any added sugar in this recipe because I used very brown bananas. The more brown your bananas, the sweeter this baked oatmeal will be. If you’re using unsweetened milk and your bananas are not over ripe, I would suggest adding 2-3 tablespoons of brown sugar to bananas while mashing. OR you could just serve with a little maple syrup. Adjust according to your sweetness preference!
  • Milk – Feel free to use your choice of milk here. Whether you use cow's milk,  goat's milk or a dairy-free alternative. For a richer flavor, you could also do part half & half or canned coconut milk.
  • canned coconut milk
  • Half the recipe – For a smaller batch, cut the ingredients in half, mix as directed and bake in a 8x4 medium loaf pan; 375ºF for 20-25 minutes.
  • Double the recipe – To feed a crowd, double the ingredients and mix as directed; bake in a 9x13 pan for 25-30 minutes, until edges are golden.
  • Mix-Ins – Feel free to do a combo of any of these mix-ins as well. For example, blueberries + walnuts. Or blueberries + peanut butter. Or include peanut butter in all three variations. This recipe is a great base – have fun with it!
