Best 2 Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Bake Recipes

BAKED OATMEAL WITH BLUEBERRIES AND BANANAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly spray a 8 x 8" or 9 x 9" ceramic baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• 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.
• Bake 15 minutes, until the bananas get soft.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the oats, half of nuts, baking powder, remaining cinnamon, and salt; stir together.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining honey, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
• Remove the bananas from the oven, then pour the oat mixture over the bananas and blueberries.
• 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.
• 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.

BAKED BLUEBERRY BANANA OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square glass or ceramic baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. You want the mixture to be 3 to 4 inches high in the dish so it doesn't dry out.
• Combine the oats, 1 tablespoon of the dark brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nuts, if using, and salt in a large bowl.
• Mash 1/2 of the banana in a medium bowl. Whisk in the milk, melted butter, vanilla and egg until combined.
• Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until fully incorporated. Very gently fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula.
• Pour the oatmeal into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Thinly slice the remaining 1/2 banana crosswise and arrange the slices in an even layer over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar (see Cook's Note). Bake until the top is slightly browned and the oats are tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Enjoy!
