FOR THE BAKED OATMEAL
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).

- Add in the egg whites, milk, syrup, 1 tbsp of melted butter, and mashed bananas. Stir to combine.
- Spray a 13″x9″ pan with oil and add the oat mixture.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes.
For the Icing
- In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar, pinch of salt, vanilla, and 1 tsp of milk. Stir vigorously until a glaze has formed. If you need a few extra drops of milk to help things move, add it.
- Place the icing into a piping bag and drizzle over the top once the oatmeal has come out of the oven.

Best of the oatmeal bakes that I’ve done… well, I’ve only done three, but still it’s the best one. Love the flavor!
I made “my” first recipe!
Love your videoes on youtube.
Love the recipe, but I did have one question… in the ingredients list you say 2 scoops of protein or 90 grams, but 2 scoops is 60 grams. Is it supposed to say 3 scoops/90g or 2 scoops/60g? Either way, I made it with 3 and it came out great!
All of the other baked oatmeal recipes with the same basic ingredients have 2 scoops as 60 grams, so its probably a typo in this one.
yah, most likely a typo. The youtube video has 2 scoops (60g).
Can you leave this out or does it need to be refrigerated?
Can I prep and freeze this?
you sure could 👍
Soooo good!! I used instant oats and soy milk. I also used honey as I didn’t have maple syrup. Was trying to just make a quick recipe to use up some ripe bananas and this fit the bill! I also added a few scoops of vital proteins collagen powder. For protein powder I chose Ghost’s apple cider donut they came out with last fall. this turned out amazing!!!
Is it possible to not use whey or use a whey substitute? My gf is lactose intolerant but really wants to try this recipe for our meal prep for the week. Made your breakfast burrito recipe though and they were awesome!
Some people use a vegan protein powder but I don’t think i would recommend that
Can confirm that it comes out just fine using a vegan protein powder substitute! I’ve done it with this recipe as well as the peaches and cream one without any problems.
There are whey based protein powders that have lactase added. That is the enzyme lactose intolerant people are missing to digest lactase, so look for that in the ingredient list of your protein powder.
Hey Josh, I love having the different flavour combinations for breakfast oatmeal and they work really well! The only problem I’m having is that the egg/egg white in the mixture sinks to the bottom of the dish while cooking and forms more of a baked omelette texture on the bottom. I don’t think you had this and I’ve looked at a few of the recipes/videos you have out – any idea what’s going on?
hmmm i’ve made these many many times and never had that issue. I’m not sure why that would be happening. My only guess would be to mix it more thoroughly but that seems like it wouldn’t be something that would be a problem.
My third favorite behind pb banana and the chocolate brownie.
Such a convenient way to get in a healthy breakfast. Tastes good hot or right out of the fridge.
Fan-tas-tic. Have done the Blueberry Cobbler and now this, really excited to try more, but may only want to use this and the blueberry so far!
This recipe is great! I can’t help but modify a bit when I’m cooking, but I swapped the whey for casein powder, and used aquafaba in place of eggs. I also added cardamom and nutmeg to my spices. Everything turned out great! my cooking time was only 30 minutes, but I suspect that was because of my egg substitution. I warm up the baked oatmeal, then top with vanilla greek yogurt. Will absolutely make this again!
What kind of consistency should it have when it’s fully baked? Like a muffin or something?
It comes out kind of like a dense muffin.
can you use chocolate protein powder for this? (Whey)
I currently make this for my mother who’s in a rehabilitation facility. It’s perfect macros for old people too! lol recently I didn’t have any ripe bananas and needed to get a batch over to her to load up her fridge. I bought some baby food bananas- worked like a charm!
My modifications:
1. Use 4 or 5 bananas
2. 1 cup all bran buds, 2 cups oatmeal
3. 1 scoop whey isolate protein powder, 1 scoop casein protein powder (both vanilla flavored)
4. 1 1/2 t baking powder
5. LIne the baking dish with parchment paper, this prevents sticking and makes cleanup much easier!
I cut them into 8 pieces and freeze them, wrapping them in the parchment I used for baking. Reheat in Microwave for 1 1/2 minutes to thaw and warm.
I have substituted 3 cups of frozen berries for the banana with good results.
This is probably the best oatmeal breakfast bake and I think I’ve cooked all the latest one
So I substituted for the bananas a small drained can of cooked carrots (about 220 g after draining) and made the rest of the weight up with dates, and a half tbs of butter. Added a 3rd scoop of protein powder. We only had a whole milk, so I added 1.5 c and a half cup of water. Also used 2 large eggs instead of the just the whites. Also added a splash of vanilla and a pinch of salt. My protein powder is a blend of half whey and half casein.
Omg this is SO FILLING and I can tell the extra protein is making my blood sugar very happy. This heavenly with a cup of coffee and I didn’t even bother to put the glaze on. My elderly mother added a small slice of ham on the side for her breakfast. She loves it. I can’t wait to try some of these other baked oatmeals.
Ohh I forgot, I blended all the wet ingredients in my blender, and my oats were half rolled and half 1 minute oats. I definitely had to use the weight measurement for the oats.
