Blended Baked Oats
Description
Blended Baked Oats feature a mixture of rolled oats, ripe banana, egg, non-dairy milk, and optional protein powder blended to a creamy consistency. Baking this batter yields a soft, sliceable breakfast with a mild sweetness and a hint of cinnamon. You can enhance the dish by stirring in or topping with chocolate chips or almond butter before baking. The ease of combining ingredients in a blender simplifies preparation and results in a homogenous texture without discrete oat granules.
The flavor is gentle and comforting, driven mainly by the banana and cinnamon. The baking soda helps the mixture rise slightly to a tender, cohesive set rather than a crunchy or dry texture. This dish can be enjoyed on its own or with additional toppings like fresh banana slices or a drizzle of non-dairy milk. It provides a wholesome start to the day or a nourishing snack.
Ensure the oats are gluten-free if needed and choose a protein powder that suits your dietary preferences. The recipe accommodates optional add-ins like chocolate chips or almond butter for extra richness and contrast in texture. Baking in a ramekin or oven-safe bowl offers a practical serving portion, straightforward cooking, and easy cleanup.
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 protein powder optional, scoop, of choice
- ½ banana large, ripe
- 1 egg large
- ¼ cup non-dairy milk of choice
- Pinch ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp baking soda
- ⅛ tsp salt sea salt
Optional Additions:
- 2 Tbsp chocolate chips optional
- 1 Tbsp almond butter optional, or peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add all of the ingredients for the banana blended baked oats to a small blender (I use my Magic Bullet) and blend until completely creamy. A small food processor will work too.
- Pour the oat mixture into an oven-safe bowl or 8-ounce ramekin. If desired, stir chocolate chips into the oatmeal mixture or sprinkle them on top. Place the ramekin on a cookie sheet (in case the mixture overflows. It shouldn’t, but better safe than sorry to avoid any oven cleanup).
- Bake the blended oats on the center rack of the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the oats have set up.
- Remove the blended baked oats from the oven, allow it to cool for a few minutes, then serve. You can serve this delicious breakfast with your favorite toppings such as sliced bananas, a dollop of almond butter (or nut butter of choice), chocolate chips, and a drizzle of your favorite non-dairy milk. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use certified gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free dish.
- Select a protein powder you prefer and are familiar with; plant-based options like hemp protein work to keep the dish vegan compatible.
- Chocolate chips and almond butter are optional but add flavor and texture variations.
- The nutrition facts exclude optional add-ins like chocolate chips and almond butter.
