Well friends, I jumped on the bandwagon. I had to give the single serving baked oatmeal a try, and boy, I was not disappointed! After looking through a few different recipes, I came up with my own take it. I don’t love chocolate in the morning (after lunch, totally different story), so I went with a banana nut baked oatmeal. Holy…yum.
If you haven’t noticed or you’re new to my little cozy corner of the Internet (Welcome!), you know I am a fan of a couple things: food from scratch and cooking with what I have on hand. Generally speaking, you won’t find nichy ingredients here, and I think this recipe holds true.
Rather than buy oat flour, I made my own using my food processor. It’s so simple my friends. Just put some old fashioned oats into your processor and hit blend until your texture is very coarse flour (I use my Kitchen Aid 7 Cup and it’s grand!). I poured a few cups of oats into my mixture, ground them up, and stored them in an air tight container.
I have a few other recipes that call for ground oats like these simple energy balls or my banana bread, so having some on hand isn’t a bad idea.
Anywho, banana nut baked oatmeal is quickly becoming my go to breakfast on the weekend when I have a touch more time. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a great weekday breakfast; I am just a fine oiled machine in the morning during the week, and overnight oats are my jam.
Ready to get mixing and baking? I hope so! Let’s make some banana nut baked oatmeal!
Your Ingredients for Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal
- ½ banana, mashed
- ⅓ cup oat flour
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon flax seed
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- ⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ⅛-¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
Your Steps to Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a ramekin with non-stick cooking spray. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl, mixing until well combined. Pour into greased ramekin. Bake on the middle shelf for 15-20 minutes, depending on the texture you want your oatmeal to be. I like it to feel more like a bread than goo-ey, so I shoot for the 20 minute mark. Either way, it’s filling and delicious; something you can feel good about putting into your body. Yum!
First, banana. Mash it up! Add the remaining ingredients (I waited on the almond milk) Mix it together and add the almond milk. Pour into the ramekin and bake! Dig in!
