Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 large Ripe bananas
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1.5 cups Milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen berries (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or oil.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the unsweetened applesauce, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bananas and whisk together until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the old-fashioned rolled oats with ground cinnamon, salt, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until the mixture is well combined. If desired, gently fold in chopped nuts and berries.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spoon or spatula.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set.
Remove the oatmeal bake from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
