Baked Oatmeal Breakfast Recipe
This is my very favorite recipe to prepare on Sunday to have all week for a fast breakfast packed with grains, protein and fruit!
Baked Oatmeal
- 2 cups uncooked Oats (I used steel cut oats- you can add any grain- quinoa & amaranth are excellent!)
- 1/2 cup walnuts ( use your favorite nut)
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tbsp Brown Sugar (optional if you want a recipe with no sugar but my hubby loves brown sugar in his oatmeal so I added just a tad )
- 1/4 tsp Sea Salt
- 2 cups liquid ( I used almond milk ) * if not serving all on one day reheating throughout the week you could increase liquid to 2.5 cups as it dries out over a few days or you can add milk each day as you warm up
- 1 egg ( optional- I omitted it as the banana puree is a great egg replacer )
- 1/4 cup Real Maple Syrup
- 2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 2 medium Bananas ( ripened mashed/pureed)
- 1 1/2 cups Blueberries ( or any fruit/mixed berries )
** optional add ground flax ( I mixed ground flax in with our dry ingredients)
** if you want to increase protein then you can mix 1 cup greek yogurt & 1 cup of liquid
Directions:
In one bowl mix together dry ingredients: dry oats, chopped walnuts, baking powder, cinnamon, brown sugar and salt
In another bowl whisk/mix together wet ingredients: milk, egg, vanilla, maple syrup, pureed banana ( I freeze my ripened bananas and take them out the night before- when they defrost it makes banana mush- this is perfect to whisk into batter and fyi pureed banana is a great vegetarian egg replacer for baked goods)
spray baking dish with nonstick spray or butter and pour in dry ingredients, pour milk mixture over the ingredients – tap the dish on the counter a few times to make sure milk soaks thru all of the oats. then sprinkle your berries throughout the top- you can also add a few extra nuts etc.
** you can use any berries, or peaches, raisins, can substitute pureed bananas with pumpkin or applesauce ( with chunks is good) whatever you prefer…get creative!
Bake at 350 for 30-45 min depending on your oven ( I have a convection oven and it took 35 minutes) as soon as it sets remove from oven and let cool on counter- Beware:if you over bake it will be dry
Great to heat up the next few days! you can also omit the syrup from the recipe and drizzle warm syrup on top when serving instead
