It’s so easy and comes together in 1 bowl with 10 ingredients you likely have on hand right now. Let’s bake! This baked oatmeal starts with a flax egg and mashed ripe banana. It’s then naturally sweetened with a little maple syrup, seasoned with cinnamon, and moistened with dairy-free milk and a little oil (which can be omitted or subbed with applesauce if needed). Next comes oats, nuts, and dark chocolate! We also recommend adding a little nut butter on top for garnish to give each serving even more richness. Plus, bananas and nut butter just belong together. After an optional sprinkle of coconut sugar for a brûlée effect, it’s into the oven for a 30 minute bake. And just like that, breakfast is on the table! We hope you all LOVE this baked oatmeal! It’s: HeartyComfortingNuttyReminiscent of banana breadNaturally sweetened& SO delicious This would make a delicious lazy weekend brunch to enjoy with friends or family. It would also be a satisfying breakfast to bake ahead of time and warm up in the mornings before work! I think it would travel especially well in a mason jar or glass container with a little dairy-free milk to be reheated at the office! Into oats?
