YUM! Another amazing baked oatmeal. Banana and peanut butter are my favorite combo and were delicious in this oatmeal! It has a touch of sweetness but was also very savory. Husband loved too!
Woo!! So glad you loved this recipe, Abigail. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
This was my first ever attempt at baked oatmeal and it did not disappoint!! So yummy!!
Woo!! So glad your first baked oatmeal was a hit!!
The only change I made was leave out the sweetener, which made it taste pretty pain except where the banana slices were. I used frozen bananas and I don’t recommend it because they get very mushy. The flavor was a little bland so maybe adding more peanut butter or mashing the bananas into the mixture would be better. The texture is not too porridge-like or too dry, but I like mine firm enough to hold its shape in a bar, so I’ll add less liquid next time.
Thanks for the feedback on the frozen banana, Keila. Super helpful for other people!
We love baked oatmeal in our house, tasty and a great timesaver! This one was delicious, cold or warm.
So glad you loved this recipe, Asta. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Delicious and so easy to make! It’s like a dessert and a welcomed, warm change to the overnight oats we have so frequently. Baked oatmeal FTW! Thanks for the recipe!
Woo!! So glad you loved this recipe, Jeannie. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
Hi! I am making this for a brunch on Saturday. Can I use quick oats? I can’t wait it looks amazing!
Hey Sydney, Yes – you can use quick oats for this recipe. Let me know how it turns out!
Perfect on the go breakfast. I recommend eating it cold it tastes like dessert 😋
I love eating it cold too!! So glad you loved this recipe, Samantha. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
I haven’t tried an EBF recipe I didn’t like, but this one is definitely a favorite around here. My five-year-old and two-year-old both beg for it every time I buy bananas and love helping me make it and eat it!
Ahh yay!! That makes me SO happy to hear, Rebekah! So glad this recipe was a hit. Thanks for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Hi! Want to try this recipe but slightly confused about the bananas. The 2 bananas that go into the mixture, are we trying to keep them whole (like whole slices) or mash/break them up as we mix it together? Thanks!
Hey Vicky, I mention to use sliced bananas. 🙂
Thank you! That’s what i did but the mixture seemed too wet after baking. Once I left it overnight, it was perfect. My 12 mth old gobbled it up for breakfast this morning! Do you have any tips for freezing? Would love to keep a freezer stash, if it holds up well to freezing.
Yes!! I love freezing baked oatmeal. I normally cut it up into individual portions and freeze them individually versus the whole baked oatmeal together. It makes for easier reheating. 🙂
Perfect for a snow day! Warm, filling and leftovers! My husband who is not nearly on the oatmeal train as I am loved it as well. That’s a win in my book. I plan to reheat this with a little drizzle of nut milk over top. 10/10 recommend!
Woo!! That makes me so happy to hear, Amanda. I’m glad it was a hit! Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Super fast and easy to make. Great flavor!! New pregnancy breakfast staple, great to take to work on the go.
Woo! So glad you loved this baked oatmeal, Stefanie. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
