Ingredients

  • 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt
  • 1.5 cups Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
  • 0.25 cups Pure maple syrup
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cups Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
  • 1 cup Fresh or frozen berries (e.g., blueberries)
  • 1 medium Banana (sliced)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined.

Step 5

Gently fold in the chopped nuts and fresh or frozen berries. Reserve a small handful of berries and nuts for topping, if desired.

Step 6

Arrange the banana slices evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 7

Pour the oatmeal mixture over the bananas, spreading it out evenly, and sprinkle the reserved berries and nuts on top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the oatmeal is set in the center.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm as-is or with a splash of milk or yogurt on top.
