Baked Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal
Ingredients
Baked Oatmeal:
- Unrefined coconut oil, for greasing pans
- 1/2 cup mashed very ripe banana (1 medium-large banana)
- 3/4 cup unsweetened unflavored oat milk (I like Silk and Oatly original)
- 2 tablespoon salted natural peanut butter (no added oil or sugar)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoons flaxseed meal
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon pink sea salt
- 2 tablespoons roughy chopped dark chocolate (I use 70% cacao bar)
Toppings:
- Sliced banana
- Peanut butter, for drizzling
- Melted dark chocolate, for drizzling
- Salted peanut halves
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375. Grease two 5 1/2-inch diameter (length across) oven-safe bowls with coconut oil.
- In a medium sized bowl mix the mashed banana, milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla and flaxseed meal until thoroughly combined. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the oats, cinnamon, baking powder and salt until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
- Divide the mixture between the two greased bowls then bake for 30 minutes or until the center no longer looks wet. Don't overbake.
- After removing from the oven, let the oatmeal rest for 5 minutes.
- Top with banana slices, peanut butter, melted chocolate and peanuts.
