Oatmeal Banana Breakfast Bake

Table of Contents

Ingredients:

    • 1 cup oatmeal
    • 150 ml milk
    • 2 bananas, mashed
    • 2 eggs, beaten (be sure to wash your eggs before using them)
    • A pinch of vanillin
    • 50 g cranberries
    • 50 g dried apricots, chopped
    • 30 g almond flakes
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Vegetable oil (for greasing)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Oatmeal Mixture:
      • In a bowl, combine the oatmeal and milk. Mix well and let stand for 10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the milk and soften.

     

  2. Combine Ingredients:
      • Mash the bananas and add them to the oatmeal mixture.
      • Add the beaten eggs, vanillin, cranberries, chopped dried apricots, almond flakes, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

     

  3. Prepare the Baking Pan:
      • Preheat the oven to 180°C (360°F).
      • Line a baking pan with baking paper and grease it with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

     

  4. Bake the Mixture:
      • Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
      • Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

     

  5. Serve:
      • Allow the breakfast bake to cool slightly before slicing.
      • Serve warm or at room temperature.

     

Serving Suggestions:

    • Enjoy a slice of the breakfast bake with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of honey.
    • Pair with a fresh fruit salad for a complete breakfast.

Cooking Tips:

  • Make sure to mix the oatmeal and milk well and let it stand to ensure the oats are adequately softened.
