As a dietitian and oatmeal lover, I LOVE blended baked oats for a comforting and delicious breakfast.
If you are not feeling baked oats, try my overnight oats recipe instead. I promise it is equally delicious!
This post is all about how to make blended baked oats.
Why make this healthy single-serving baked oatmeal?
- Perfectly Portioned. No more worrying about leftovers piling up in the fridge.
- Minimal Cleanup. Simplify your mornings with this recipe that only requires one bowl, minimizing cleanup.
- Protein. The oats themselves provide 5g of protein per serving. However, the addition of the egg white in this recipe boosts this up even further. The egg white also creates a cake batter consistency for this dish.
- Fibre. Packed with fibre from the oats and vitamins from the banana and raspberries, this is a delicious and nutritious way to kickstart your day.
- No refined sugar. This recipe is sweetened naturally with a ripe banana. Make sure you get them spotty- the riper, the tastier!
Ingredients
- Ripe Banana: Rich in potassium and natural sugars for quick energy.
- Rolled Oats: High in fibre, antioxidants, and essential vitamins and minerals.
- Egg White: Source of protein
- Raspberries: Loaded with antioxidants, low in calories, and high in fibre.
- Cinnamon: Anti-inflammatory properties, rich in antioxidants.
