Baked Oats
Description
Baked Oats are prepared by blending rolled oats, banana, egg, maple syrup, and baking powder into a uniform batter. The mixture is poured into a greased ramekin or oven-safe dish and baked until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, indicating it is cooked but retains tender moisture.
The ripe banana acts as a natural sweetener and moisture source. Optionally, cocoa powder can be added for a chocolate flavor variation. The resulting baked dish has a soft, cakey texture with mild sweetness and oat graininess.
This recipe serves as a warm breakfast or snack and can be topped or frosted after cooling. It can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerated for freshness.
Baked oats freeze well before or after baking for up to three months, making them convenient for meal prep and longer storage.
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 banana ripe
- 1 egg large
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch salt
- cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder optional if making chocolate one
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a ramekin or oven-safe pan with cooking spray.
- In a blender combine all the ingredients until smooth and well-blended, about 1 minute.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared ramekin. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out with just a couple crumbs. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before serving and frosting.
Notes
- Store baked oats in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or up to 1 week in the fridge.
- You can freeze baked oats before or after baking; store in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months.
