Baked Oats

This is my recipe for the viral Tiktok Baked Oats trend. It feels like eating a healthy cake for breakfast.

Baked Oats are the new trending recipe all over social media and it's one I'm super excited about! I mean who wouldn't be excited about the idea of eating a “cake” like dish for breakfast and still be a balanced healthy meal??

You can see all of my baking recipes including my banana bread, strawberry muffins, banana chocolate slice and even my pancake recipe all use rolled oats as the “flour” component so I had to make my version of this viral TikTok concept.

Here I’ve made Almond Banana Baked Oats which is so easy to make, delicious, and extremely healthy being full of nutrients to get your day started.

If your after an egg-less version, I've also made vegan baked oats in the microwave, so be sure to check it out.

Another way I love to eat oats are making Overnight Oats. A fun and delicious way to eat them is making tiramisu overnight oats... YUM!

Ingredients to Make Baked Oats

Rolled Oats are the base of the dish which are blended to make oat flour. You can use quick oats or oat flour however steel-cut oats will have a much coarser texture so I wouldn't recommend using them.
Ripe Banana is added for it's sweetness and soft texture, you can also substitute with apple sauce
Egg is used to bind the ingredients together along with creating an airy texture. You can also substitute with using a flax egg or increasing the milk ratio however the timing and texture will be slightly different.
Almond milk is always my preferred milk of choice but you can also use your preferred milk
Maple syrup is used as a sweetener, you can also use honey or agave
Vanilla extract is added for a subtle vanilla flavour
Baking powder is used to help the oats fluff up into a cake-like texture
Cinnamon is added for its beautiful smell and taste
Pinch of salt added for some flavour

Flavour Alternatives

I also love adding different flavours in the middle. These are some alternatives you can use:

Biscoff spread
Peanut butter
Almond butter
Raspberries, blueberries or strawberries

Tips and Tricks

I always find it's best to blend oats into oat flour to start with. This achieves a much smoother batter quicker and will assist with a softer texture once cooked
When picking your banana, the riper the banana the better as it will provide a naturally sweeter taste
Don't over blend the mixture as you want the batter to remain airy
Make sure to grease your ramekin well before adding the mixture. I prefer brushing on melted coconut oil but you can also use oil spray
