Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal Recipe

INGREDIENTS FOR THIS RECIPE

This banana blueberry baked oatmeal comes together with a handful of pantry staples. Here’s what we’ll be using to make this baked oats recipe: 

• Old Fashioned Rolled Oats: If you’re looking for a gluten-free option, you can replace the oats in this recipe with gluten-free rolled oats.
• Baking powder: Helps the baked oatmeal rise. 
• Ground cinnamon: Adds flavor and complements the fresh fruit perfectly. 
• Salt: Balances out the sweetness from the bananas and blueberries. 
• Mashed bananas: Ripe, speckled bananas are best in this recipe. If your bananas aren’t ripe enough yet, place them in a brown paper bag for 1-2 days to ripen quicker.
• Milk: Any type of milk will work in this recipe. I used almond milk, but use what you have on hand. 
• Honey: Sweetens the blueberry banana oatmeal. 
• Egg: Binds everything together and prevents the oats from crumbling once baked. 
• Vanilla extract: Pure vanilla extract is best in this recipe. 
• Blueberries: Fresh or frozen blueberries will work.

HOW TO MAKE BAKED OATMEAL 

Mix wet and dry ingredients in separate bowls. Stir wet and dry ingredients together. Mix in blueberries gently.

Place the mixture in an 8-inch square baking dish and bake for 30–40 minutes until firm and faintly golden brown. My ideal time is 35–36 minutes.

Slice blueberry banana baked oatmeal after 10 minutes of cooling. While baked oatmeal has a soft and chewy texture, it is tasty and ideal for finicky eaters. I adore making Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal and topping it with Greek yogurt. Add pure maple syrup, almond milk, or fresh fruit for a delicious topping.
