Banana Blueberry Baked Oatmeal

Creamy banana blueberry oatmeal baked in the oven.

📝 Ingredients

• 4 small/medium bananas (1 cup mashed bananas)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup milk (240ml)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted or soft, or butter)
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder (can be omitted)
• pinch of salt
• 2 cups rolled oats (7 oz/200g)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for greasing the baking dish, or butter)
• 1 cup blueberries (100g)
• 1/4 cup walnuts

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C/Gas Mark 5, no fan (if you have a convection oven, reduce the temperature by about 20° or follow the manufacturer's instructions).
2. 2Prepare a 9-inch (23 cm) round baking dish (I used a pie dish) or a 8×8-inch square (20x20cm) baking dish (or similar) and grease it with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.
3. 3Mash the bananas with a fork.
4. 4Add all the ingredients for the oatmeal except the oats into a medium bowl and whisk until very well combined. Next, whisk in the oats.
5. 5Pour the oatmeal batter into the baking dish.
6. 6Top with walnuts and blueberries.
7. 7Bake for about 30 minutes or until the oatmeal is set but still creamy (not dry). The baking time may vary depending on the oven.
8. 8Leave to set and cool for about 5 minutes, then serve (I like it most with plain yogurt and maple syrup).
9. 9Enjoy!
