4.4 from 11 reviews

A wholesome and nutritious Blueberry Baked Oatmeal that combines rolled oats, almond butter, ripe bananas, and fresh blueberries. This easy-to-make baked dish is perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack, offering a naturally sweet and satisfying flavor with optional additions like honey, maple syrup, and walnuts for extra texture.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 9 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats (gluten-free, if needed)
  • 1/2 cup almond butter (can use any nut or seed butter)
  • 2 large bananas
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • Optional: 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • Optional: 1/4 cup walnuts
  • Optional: Milk, as needed to thin batter

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set it aside to ensure easy removal of the oatmeal once baked.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas and combine them with rolled oats and almond butter. Add the optional honey or maple syrup if you want a bit more sweetness. Fold in half of the blueberries using a rubber spatula to gently mix without breaking them. If the batter feels too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen it. If it’s too thin, incorporate extra oats until you get your desired consistency.
  3. Transfer Batter and Add Toppings: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining blueberries and optional walnuts on top of the batter for added texture and flavor.
  4. Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the baked oatmeal from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute the almond butter with any other nut or seed butter such as peanut butter or sunflower seed butter.
  • Using gluten-free oats makes the recipe suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
  • Adjust the sweetness by using honey or maple syrup according to your preference, or omit entirely for a naturally sweet dish from bananas and blueberries.
  • Adding nuts like walnuts provides a nice crunch and extra protein but can be omitted if you prefer a nut-free version.
  • If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw before adding to maintain texture.
  • Serve warm or cold, with a splash of milk or yogurt if desired.
