Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana, or ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 eggs
- 1.75 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon zest
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 2 tbsp turbinado sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1.5 cups fresh blueberries, divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Oil an 8×8 square baking dish, or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mash the banana (or add the applesauce). Next, add the wet ingredients (eggs, milk, oil, vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon juice), and mix until well combined. Lastly, add the dry ingredients (rolled oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt), giving it a quick stir, then folding in 1 cup of blueberries.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of blueberries on the top, then bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center of the baked oats is set and the edges are golden brown. Use a toothpick to check doneness – when inserted into the center, it should come out clean or with a dry crumb.
- Allow the baked oats to cool before cutting into and serving. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Top with a little greek yogurt and additional blueberries or your favorite toppings!
