Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe bananas (the riper the better) sliced into 1/2" pieces)
  • 1 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/4 cup honey (or maple)
  • 1 cup uncooked quick or old fashion oats*
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup fat free milk (or any milk you desire)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly spray a 8 x 8" or 9 x 9" ceramic baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. Arrange the banana slices in a single layer on the bottom of the ceramic dish. Sprinkle half of the blueberries over the bananas, 1/4 tsp of the cinnamon, 1 tbsp of the honey and cover with foil.
  3. Bake 15 minutes, until the bananas get soft.
  4. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the oats, half of nuts, baking powder, remaining cinnamon, and salt; stir together.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining honey, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
  6. Remove the bananas from the oven, then pour the oat mixture over the bananas and blueberries.
  7. Pour the milk mixture over the oats, making sure to distribute the mixture as evenly as possible over the oats. Sprinkle the remaining blueberries and walnuts over the the top.
  8. Bake the oatmeal for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal has set. Serve warm from the oven. Cut in 6 pieces.

Notes

Baking classic baked oatmeal with fruit and nuts.
You can make this with any combination of nuts and fruit you like, the possibilities are endless! Make it gluten-free by using gluten-free oats, and you can make this dairy free using any milk you would normally have on hand. Swap the bananas for thin sliced apples and walnuts. Swap the blueberries for strawberries or mixed berries. To make ahead, you can refrigerate for 3 to 4 days. Reheat leftovers in the microwave for about 60 seconds, until warmed.
Cut into 6 pieces; serve warm.
Refrigerate up to 3-4 days.
