Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas mashed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups milk of choice*
- 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup protein powder optional
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 2 cups ripe strawberries chopped
Optional Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice or water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper (both an 8 inch and a 9 inch square baking dish work). You can also spray the pan with cooking spray if you don’t have parchment paper on hand.
- Mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl until they’re nice and creamy. Add in the eggs, milk, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract and mix until the wet ingredients are well-combined. Pour in the rolled oats, protein powder, and sea salt (dry ingredients) and mix everything well until it’s combined. Stir in the chopped strawberries.
- Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the top with more chopped strawberries if you’d like.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 55 to 65 minutes, or until the baked oatmeal is golden-brown around the edges. Baked goods are considered fully cooked once they have reached an internal temperature of 190 to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use an instant read thermometer to verify the internal temperature of the baked oatmeal for doneness. If you’re using a larger 9-inch baking pan, bake for 45-50 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the baked oatmeal to cool to room temperature before slicing into individual portions and serving.
Notes
*Use any type of milk you like. Regular cow’s milk, almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, and canned coconut milk all work here.
