Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal
Oatmeal turns into a filling breakfast custard that is packed with juicy blueberries and creamy bananas. This recipe makes a generous amount and is perfect for a larger group but it also freezes well if you have leftovers.
Servings: 12 to 15 servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oatmeal flakes
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2¼ cups milk
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 to 3 bananas peeled and sliced

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Grease a 9 x 13-inch square pan with nonstick spray or line it with parchment paper.
- Mix the oatmeal flakes, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and salt in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl beat the milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir it into the oatmeal mixture.
- Stir in half of the bananas and blueberries. Spread into the baking pan.
- Top with the remaining banana and blueberries.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the edges are set and the middle is still slightly jiggly. It will continue to cook when you take it out of the oven.
- Cool for 5 minutes then slice and serve.

Notes
Do not use instant oats, they soak up more moisture and the baked oatmeal will turn out dry.
