Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 2 medium bananas, mashed
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup almond milk (or any other milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Toppings
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 7’’x11’’ baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, mash the bananas thoroughly. Crack in the eggs, then add honey, melted unsalted butter, almond milk, vanilla extract, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to create a uniform mixture.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Incorporate the rolled oats and chocolate chips into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined and the oats are fully coated.
- Assemble in Baking Dish: Transfer the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle shredded coconut evenly over the top for added flavor and texture.
- Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 27 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the oatmeal is set.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool slightly before slicing and serving for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute almond milk with any preferred milk, such as dairy or oat milk.
- For a vegan version, replace eggs with flax eggs and honey with maple syrup.
- Feel free to add nuts or dried fruits for extra texture and nutrients.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheat before serving.
- Use gluten-free oats if you require a gluten-free recipe.
