Baked to perfection with warming chai spices and a touch of maple syrup, this dish is both comforting and nutritious, perfect for starting your day on a wholesome note.

Ingredients

Oats Mixture

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon chai spice (or ground cinnamon)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Topping

  • 1/3 cup frozen blueberries (or fresh blueberries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the oat mixture.
  2. Blend the ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, ripe banana, baking powder, chai spice, and maple syrup. Blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is fully combined and the oats have broken down into a smooth consistency.
  3. Prepare baking dishes: Divide the oat mixture evenly between two 10-ounce ramekins or small baking dishes. Evenly distribute the mixture to ensure uniform baking.
  4. Add blueberries topping: Top each ramekin with the frozen or fresh blueberries, gently pressing them into the oat mixture if desired.
  5. Bake the oats: Place the ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the oats are set and golden around the edges.
  6. Serve: Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, and enjoy your warm blueberry baked oats as a nutritious breakfast or snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute chai spice with ground cinnamon if preferred.
  • Using fresh blueberries works just as well as frozen; if using frozen, there is no need to thaw them beforehand.
  • This recipe easily doubles or triples for more servings by adjusting the quantities accordingly and using appropriately sized baking dishes.
  • For a vegan version, make sure your maple syrup and almond milk are certified vegan.
  • Leftover baked oats can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave.
