Strawberry Banana Baked Oatmeal
Description
The recipe blends rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt with non-dairy milk, maple syrup, egg, melted coconut oil, vanilla, mashed bananas, and fresh strawberries. Chocolate chips and sliced banana pieces are folded in, with extra fruit and chips scattered on top before baking at 375°F until set and golden on the edges.
The finished baked oatmeal has a tender center that might remain slightly moist from the strawberries, with crisp edges and a gentle sweetness from banana and maple. The chocolate chips add occasional richness amidst the fruit and oat flavors.
This dish is well suited for breakfast or brunch and can be portioned for easy serving. Additional fresh fruit and milk make suitable accompaniments at the table.
After baking, store leftovers tightly covered in the refrigerator for 4-6 days. To reheat, use a microwave or oven until warmed through, adding milk if desired to restore moisture.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats old-fashioned
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- 2 cups non-dairy milk of choice
- 1 egg or 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed, large

Instructions
- Set oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Prepare pan: Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
- Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Add in milk, maple syrup, egg, coconut oil, vanilla and mashed banana. Stir well to combine.
- Add remaining ingredients: Gently fold in 1 cup strawberries, 1/2 of your banana slices and 1/8 cup of chocolate chips.
- Pour into baking dish: Carefully pour oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Add toppings: Scatter the remaining strawberries, banana slices and chocolate chips on top.
- Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the middle of the bake is set (it might still be slightly wet from the strawberries but that’s okay). The top/edges will be golden.
