Yield: 9servings
Ingredients
2cupsold fashioned rolled oats
1teaspoonbaking powder
1 ½teaspoonsground cinnamon
½teaspoonsalt
2medium ripe bananas, mashed
1large egg
1cupmilk of choice (skim, 2%, soy, etc.)
1cupcreamy peanut butter
⅓cuphoney
1teaspoonpure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350. Grease an 8x8 baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Combine the oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl and mix well.
In a separate medium bowl, mash the bananas. Add the egg, milk, peanut butter, honey and vanilla and mix until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. It will be very liquidy. That’s normal and totally fine.
Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes, until the baked oatmeal is browned around the edges and set in the middle.
Let cool for at least 10-15 minutes before cutting. (Longer is better; it helps it set up all the way so it’s not crumbly.)
Notes
This peanut butter baked oatmeal will keep covered, on the counter, for up to 2 days. After that, I recommend you move it to the refrigerator. It will keep there for another 2-3 days. You can also freeze the leftovers for up to 6 months.This is great served warm or cold.You can cut this into 9 large or 16 small squares for serving.You can add ½ cup chocolate chips for a fun add-in.This baked oatmeal is great on its own but you can also top it with a drizzle or smear of peanut butter. You could also use a spread of jelly or jam for a peanut butter and jelly combination, a drizzle of honey or a smear of Nutella on top.
