Introduction

This Banana Bread Baked Oatmeal is a warm, comforting breakfast that combines the flavors of classic banana bread with hearty oats. It’s easy to prepare, packed with wholesome ingredients, and perfect for a cozy morning treat.

A rectangular baked oatmeal dish in a clear glass pan fills most of the image, sitting on a white marbled surface with a grey cloth beside it. The oatmeal base is light brown with a rough texture, topped with scattered whole oats and chopped pecans that add a darker brown, crunchy look. Several round, pale yellow banana slices are placed unevenly on top, and there is a shiny amber drizzle of syrup across the surface, giving it a glossy finish in spots. To the right of the dish, a carton of egg whites with blue and red labels rests on the cloth. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

2 cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
1 tablespoon Chia Seeds
2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseed
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/2 cup Pasteurized Egg White
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 1/4 cups Soy Milk
2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
3/4 cup Mashed Banana
1/3 cup Chopped Pecans
1 Banana (for topping, optional)
Non-Stick Baking Spray (as needed)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a medium-sized baking dish with non-stick baking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, ground flaxseed, ground cinnamon, pasteurized egg white, vanilla extract, soy milk, brown sugar, and mashed banana. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
Step 3: Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Step 4: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Step 5: Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the chopped pecans on top. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, until the baked oatmeal is fully set and cooked through.
Step 6: If desired, slice the remaining banana and use it as a fresh topping before serving.

Tips & Variations

For extra sweetness, add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey on top before serving.
Swap soy milk for almond or oat milk to suit your preference.
Feel free to substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds for a different crunch.
Add a handful of chocolate chips or dried fruit in the mix for extra flavor and texture.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, warm individual portions in the microwave for about 30 seconds or until heated through. You can also freeze the baked oatmeal for up to 1 month; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

How to Serve

A baked oatmeal square sits inside a clear glass baking dish on a white marbled surface, topped with scattered small pieces of pecans and whole oats creating a rough texture across the light brown base. Several round banana slices are arranged on top, some drizzled with a shiny amber syrup that pools slightly on the surface, adding a glossy contrast. Next to the baking dish, a carton of Eggland's Best 100% egg whites rests on a light grey cloth, showing a colorful image of baked egg whites with red and green vegetables.
