Ingredients
2 cups rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
½ cup almond butter (or any nut/seed butter)
2 large bananas
½ cup blueberries
Optional: Honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness
Optional: Milk if batter is too thick
Optional: Walnuts or mix-ins for topping
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the rolled oats and almond butter.
Step 3
If you like, drizzle in a little honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness. Mix everything together until well combined.
Step 4
Gently fold in half of the blueberries using a rubber spatula.
Step 5
If the batter feels too thick, add a splash of milk to loosen it. If it feels too runny, sprinkle in a few more oats.
Step 6
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
Step 7
Scatter the remaining blueberries over the top. Add any extra mix-ins like chopped walnuts if you like.
Step 8
Bake for about 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the baked oatmeal cool in the pan for about 15 minutes.
Step 10
Carefully transfer the oatmeal to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
