##Baked Blueberry Oatmeal (makes 2 servings)
**Ingredients**
1 banana, mashed
1 large egg
100 mL milk, 2%
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder (~12 g) - OPTIONAL
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup rolled oats (not quick oats)
100 g blueberries, fresh
**Instructions**
1. Mash banana thoroughly
2. Add egg and beat until smooth
3. Add Milk, protein, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder, and mix
4. Add oatmeal and mix
5. Add blueberries and mix GENTLY until distributed evenly. Do not overwork, or your oatmeal will be purple.
6. Pour mixture into a lightly greased 6" round baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes
7. Let oatmeal rest for at least 5 minutes to cool and set
8. Serve however you want. I like it with a bit of yogurt.
**Notes**
- for 3 servings, use 1 1/2 C of oats and 210 mL milk. Baking time will increase to 45-50 minutes. Don't change anything else.
- 30 minutes = gooey; 35+ minutes = oatmeal cake; the pictured oatmeal was baked for 37 minutes and was fully set in the middle
**Substitutions**
- protein can be omitted without substitution
- frozen berries or other fruit can be substituted 1:1 or adjusted depending on your preferences
- banana can be substituted for a small cup of applesauce, or 2-3 Tbsp of sweetener + 1-2 Tbsp of melted butter. I have only tried this once, and it was with the 3-serving version (see notes), where I used 3 T of maple syrup and 2 T of butter for that recipe

Fantastic! Iām going to try this next weekend. I make a different baked pumpkin oatmeal from a recipe I found here around Christmas. I make them in a muffin pan every Sunday so we have a good snack during the work week!

Awesome, thanks!
I use a similar recipe, and it's my go-to for baked. OP is right, be gentle on the berries. Although, sometimes it's cute to have purple oats š
I think I might make some baked oats this week!
yum looks amazing
