Whip up a quick breakfast with the Lean Greenbean‘ s recipe for nutty baked oatmeal. High-fiber rolled oats is mixed with some simple pantry items to make a slightly sweet, slightly nutty morning meal. This is an energy dense breakfast food, but you can cut and share as desired.
Nutty Baked Oatmeal Ingredients Optional Toppings Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Mash the banana and peanut butter together in a small bowl. Add the oats, milk and egg and mix well. Stir in the baking soda, cinnamon and pumpkin seeds. Pour into 2 large, greased ramekins (or whatever pan you want to use) and bake at 400 degrees F for 25 minutes. Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for 15 minutes. Top with a drizzle of nut butter and some fresh fruit if desired. NOTES: You can double this recipe and bake in a bigger pan. Lining the bottom of the ramekins or pan with parchment paper makes it easy to remove.
