Finally putting my over ripe bananas to use with this delicious Banana Nut Baked Oatmeal. This baked oatmeal is full of whole grains rich in fiber, protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, a ton of essential vitamins and minerals, and uses zero refined sugars making it the perfect sweet treat to start my mornings (and also makes for great leftovers!) *ps if you have a good high speed blender like a Vitamix the homemade cashew milk is super creamy and makes all of the difference.

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats

1 ripe banana mashed

2 cups nut milk * I like using homemade cashew milk (1 cup raw cashews + 3 cups hot water blended on high for 5 mins)

1/4 cup raw maple syrup 

1/4 cup sliced almonds (raw)

1/4 cup chopped walnuts (raw)

1.5 tbsp chia seeds

1.5 tbsp flaxseed meal

1 scoop collagen powder (can exclude if desired)

1.5 tsp pure vanilla extract

1.5 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp coarse sea salt

Extra Toppings

1 banana cut into 12 pieces 

Almond butter

Cinnamon

Nutmeg

Almonds

Chia seeds

Steamed cashew milk

Directions

  1. Mix wet ingredients and dry ingredients separately then combine

  2. Using an 8x8 baking dish (greased), bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes (cover for first 15 minutes)

  3. At 30 minutes remove from oven, place additional banana slices on top of oatmeal and bake for another 5 minutes

  4. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving

  5. Top with extra spices like a dash of cinnamon + nutmeg, extra nuts + seeds, a drizzle of raw almond butter, and some steamed cashew milk and enjoy!
