    Blended baked oats ladies and gentlemen should be a thing in every household! Not a fan of oatmeal, you say? Well, perfect! Let's put those oats in a blender with banana and some spices, pour the batter in a cup and sprinkle with nuts and chocolate chips, and pop that mug into the microwave. BING - one minute later you have a mug full of banana bread that will make you feel like you’re having cake for breakfast. So easy! Banana Bread Blended Baked Oats - Blend, bake and enjoy.

    When I saw that baked blended oats were going viral on TikTok I knew this was a trend that I was gonna try! Ever since I fell in love with this chocolate brownie mug cake, microwave desserts are my jam! That said, I’ve never made single-serving baked oatmeal - I'm more a baked oatmeal casserole kinda girl.

    I tried banana bread baked blended oats this week and whoa was I blown away by how delicious they turned out! Such a fun treat to have for breakfast. 

    ingredients needed for making banana bread baked blended oats in the micowave

    Ingredients needed for making Banana Bread Baked Oats

    • rolled or quick oats – it doesn't matter because we'll blend them anyway. Just be sure to grab gluten-free oats if needed.
    • plant-based milk – I used oat milk here, but any plant-based milk will work. Even normal cow's milk 🙂
    • banana – make sure it’s a ripe banana because we don't add much sweetener here
    • egg – free-range, obvs! You can use flax egg for vegan but the egg-free version will not be as fluffy.
    • maple syrup – so tasty. Honey also works! You can up the amount a tiny bit if you have a serious sweet-tooth
    • banana bread spices aka. cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves 
    • baking powder for that magic rise
    • pinch of salt -always
    • banana bread add-ins like chopped pecans and chocolate chips

    I love banana bread so I added banana bread spices and toppings! Just like I did with this baked blended oats recipe, you can completely customize this easy TikTok recipe - think lemon zest, peanut butter chips, blueberries, cocoa powder! Anything you feel like! Getting the health benefits of fiber-rich oats, while eating cake for breakfast every day!? That sounds a lot like winning at life!

    How to make Banana Bread Baked Blended Oats

    Tiktok blended baked oats batter in a small ramekin being topped with chopped pecans and chocolate chips
    1. Blend all of the batter ingredients apart from chopped nuts and chocolate chips in a blender or food processor. You want to blend until very smooth. Set the mix aside to thicken a bit for a couple of minutes. This will prevent toppings from sinking into the batter.
    2. Now, pour the batter into a lightly greased 8-ounce ramekin, a round small bowl, or an oven-safe mug. When choosing a container, keep in mind that the batter will puff up a LOT while cooking (to almost double its size) and then deflate so make sure the container is big enough to avoid spilling. 
    3. Stir in chopped nuts and chocolate chips, saving a few for decorating the top. If the batter is still pretty thin, the nuts and chocolate chips might sink to the bottom but it’s fine since you can invert the cake after cooking and the bottom becomes the top. 
    4. Microwave the cake on high in 30 seconds increments until it’s cooked through (err on the side of caution. This cake is better a big gooey vs overcooked). It took me 2 minutes total. Once cooked, the cake will pull away from the sides. Remove the mug from the microwave using oven mitts and either eat as is (as pictured) or invert onto a plate.

    No microwave? Bake it!

    Alternatively, you can bake these for 20 minutes at 350 F or until the edges pull away from the sides and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Bake for 15 Minutes for a gooey cake. Remove, let cool slightly and enjoy!

    Tips:

    • The cake batter is not overly sweet because we add the chocolate chips which makes them perfect. However, if you want a really sweet cake or don’t use any sweet add-ins, up the amount of sweetener.
    • If you don't have all the spices, just add cinnamon. And/or add in some vanilla essence.  
    • If you have oat flour, you can use that instead of rolled oats.
