Baked Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal is the perfect make-ahead breakfast, and it’s ideal for families on the go. It is made with simple ingredients in your pantry and takes only 35 minutes to bake. Prepare a batch of baked peanut butter oatmeal and slice it into individual servings for an easy grab-and-go breakfast high in fiber and free of refined sugar.
In a bowl, mash up the bananas. Then add in all the wet ingredients: milk, egg, melted peanut butter, and maple syrup.
In another bowl, you can mix all the dry ingredients: rolled oats, cinnamon, quick oats, salt, and baking powder. Or add them directly into the wet ingredients and mix everything together.
Spray a baking dish with some cooking spray and add in the oats mixture. Top with some sliced bananas if desired.
Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until fully cooked, when edges and top are lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve with some maple syrup and more sliced banana or drizzle melted peanut butter if desired.
Notes
Use a combination of rolled oats and quick oats for a lovely texture.
Bring the cold ingredients to room temperature for 15 minutes.
Be sure that the bananas are well mashed.
Swap the peanut butter for your favorite nut or seed butter.
Make ahead and reheat for a quick and simple breakfast.
Let the baked oatmeal rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Drizzle melted peanut butter on top for a flavorful garnish.
