It is high time I revisited this baked oats recipe, first posted in 2013! This actually feels like a lifetime ago, certainly in blog years.

Glad to report that my love for this easy slimming breakfast dish hasn’t faded, if anything I now appreciate it all the more!

Here’s what you will need

• Rolled wholegrain oats – I used Quaker Oats. Use gluten-free oats if you have an intolerance or sensitivity.
• Milk – I used skimmed milk (Arla B.O.B milk is a favourite) but you can use any type such as coconut milk, soy, oat, almond etc if you are avoiding dairy.
• One small ripe banana – baked fruit has syns on SW (4 per 100g) so make sure to count them.
• One large egg to bind everything together
• A little melted Flora Pro Activ Light (or butter, or melted coconut oil) 
• Light brown sugar or Sukrin Gold – just enough to add a little sweetness
• Baking powder (check it is Gluten Free) and salt
• Cinnamon and vanilla extract – feel free to add different spices or extracts if you prefer
• Fresh fruit like raspberries or blueberries or you can use frozen fruit like the mixed berry bags supermarkets carry for making smoothies. These are allowed as a healthy extra on SW.
• A few mixed seeds or nuts to top, or mix into the oats. Check the healthy allowance guidelines for these and don’t go overboard.
  

HOW TO MAKE BAKED OATS

Preheat the oven to 190C (375F) and place a rack in the centre of the oven. Put the chopped banana to a large bowl and mash with a fork until smooth.

Add the egg, sweetener and melted Flora and mix together to combine.

Stir in the milk, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and vanilla extract.

Add the oats to the liquid ingredients and mix well.

Transfer the batter into a square (8×8 inch) cake tin lined with baking paper. Spread to the corners of the tin using a spatula.

Top with fresh or frozen fruit pushing them halfway into the oats. I used raspberries but blueberries are also a great option. Add a handful of mixed seeds, such as pumpkin and sunflower.

Bake until firm, around 40-45 minutes. Leave to cool slightly before slicing.

How to serve baked oats

My favourite way to enjoy this recipe is warm, drizzled with a little honey or maple syrup. 

Add fat- free yoghurt fresh fruit on the side and for a healthy breakfast. It really tastes like such a treat – simply warm up for 20-30 seconds in the microwave.

Slice into thin bars to eat cold as a snack. Easy to pack for when you are on the go plus so filling and healthy!

Serve warm with a scoop of frozen yoghurt and a drizzle of Sweet Freedom Syrup or Skinny Foods Syrup or to serve this as a healthy dessert.

Healthy Baked Oatmeal Notes & Tips

Baked oatmeal will keep for 3-4 days in the fridge which works out great as a make-ahead breakfast. 

You can also freeze it – cut into slices, wrap well, label and freeze for up to a month. Thaw overnight in the fridge and warm in the microwave before serving.

This is a great recipe for customising. Add different fruit and nuts to suit the seasons – apples and pecans are a fave combo.
