Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon chai spice or ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Toppings

  • ⅓ cup frozen blueberries or fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it is hot and ready for baking.
  2. Blend Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, ripe banana, baking powder, chai spice or cinnamon, and maple syrup. Blend for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture is smooth and the oats have broken down thoroughly.
  3. Divide Into Ramekins: Pour and split the blended oat mixture evenly between two 10-ounce ramekins or small baking dishes. This allows for even cooking and individual servings.
  4. Add Blueberries: Top each ramekin with the frozen or fresh blueberries, distributing them evenly for bursts of fruity flavor throughout.
  5. Bake: Place the ramekins in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the baked oats are set, cooked through, and have a lightly golden top.
  6. Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy as a wholesome and delicious breakfast or snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond milk with any other plant-based milk or regular milk if preferred.
  • Adjust maple syrup according to your sweetness preference.
  • For a vegan option, ensure that the maple syrup is pure and no honey is used.
  • Use fresh blueberries in season for the best taste, or frozen when fresh are not available.
  • Chai spice can be replaced with ground cinnamon if chai is not available.
  • Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
