Description
Easy, healthy and delicious steel-cut baked oatmeal recipe. Try them served hot topped with berries, splash of milk, banana and peanut butter.
Ingredients
- 1 cup steel-cut oats (176 g)
- 3 cups almond milk or other plant-based milk of choice (750 mL)
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed (approx. 220 g)
- 1 apple, chopped (approx. 150 g, or other fruit of choice)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the bananas in an 8×8-inch glass baking dish and mash with a fork until they form a paste.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
- Cover and bake for 45 minutes then remove the cover and bake for 15 more minutes until golden brown on top. If you don’t have a lid for your baking dish, you can use a baking pan flipped upside down and placed on top of the dish.
- Enjoy right away or store in the fridge for up to 5 days, enjoying cold or reheating as needed.
Notes
These will thicken up as they sit. If reheating later, add a splash of milk, if you like.
Topping ideas: Maple syrup, almond milk, berries, banana slices, peanut or almond butter, nuts, cacao nibs, coconut or tahini.
This recipe contains no added sugar. The only sweetness comes from the banana. For sweeter oats, mix in 2-3 tbsp sweetener of choice such as maple syrup, coconut sugar, brown sugar or sprinkle them over when serving.
