Strawberry banana baked oatmeal is a heart healthy and delicious breakfast

My kindergartener is strawberry-banana obsessed.

Baked oatmeal is my favorite thing ever because it’s convenient, filling, and easy to meal prep. I wouldn’t bother to eat a relatively-wholesome breakfast if it wasn’t already prepared, in the fridge, ready to go first thing in the morning.

I don’t ever reheat this — I just grab it from the fridge and eat it cold. You, however, can reheat this if you want. I suspect that baked oatmeal reheats particularly well.

Prep Time10

Cook Time45

Servings: 6

Ingredients

3 mashed bananas (about 1½ cups)
1 egg
¼ cup liquid egg white
¼ cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups milk of your choice
2½ cups uncooked old fashioned oats
8 ounces strawberries (chopped or sliced)

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 375 °F
Spray a 13×9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray
Whisk together the mashed bananas, egg, egg whites, sugar, vanilla extract, baking powder and salt
Stir in the milk
Stir in the uncooked oats
Stir in the strawberries
Pour into the baking dish and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick or knife inserted into the center of the oatmeal comes out clean. If you're using frozen strawberries, you might need to bake it a little longer (about one hour), so keep your eyes on it!
