I think I’ve found my new favourite breakfast. Baked banana and peanut butter oatmeal. Who knew oatmeal could be so versatile? I’ve been meaning to try baked oatmeal for so long now and I had no idea how delicious it would be. This oatmeal ticks all my comfort food boxes – easy to prepare, delicious warm or cold and packed full of tummy pleasing flavours!
Cinnamon, banana and peanut butter are a match made in heaven, possibly one of my favourite flavour combinations of all time. If you agree, you’re gonna love this comforting dish. It’s perfect straight from the oven, but also wonderful heated up the next day with a little milk, or you can just eat it cold like a cake. It’s fair to say I’m now a baked oatmeal convert!
Cashew milk is so creamy which is why I used it in this recipe, but any other plant based mylk would work, I’m sure oat milk would be equally as delicious.
To make it gluten free, just source some gluten free oats. The extra peanut butter on top is totally optional but highly recommended, because who doesn’t want extra peanut butter? Life is better with extra peanut butter.
I hope you enjoy this super easy recipe, please do tag me if you recreate it or leave me a comment below!
Happy baking,
Bo
