Vegan Peanut Butter Banana Baked Oatmeal

November 19, 2019 by Allison 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

This vegan peanut butter banana baked oatmeal is a nourishing, cozy breakfast for the fall and winter months. Enjoy it fresh out of the oven for a porridge-like consistency, or refrigerate it for a firmer, oatmeal square-like texture. However you enjoy it, make sure to top it with a drizzle of peanut butter and seasonal fruit, such as pomegranate in the winter or berries in the summer!

Vegan Peanut Butter and Banana Baked Oatmeal

The past few days have been trying for me, and that’s likely because I have been neglecting self care and sleep. Everything seems so much harder when you’re tired, doesn’t it? I have so much on my mind these days that it’s been really hard to just sit still, deep breathe, and take time to simply BE. As a result, today, on a scheduled day off from work, I feel tired, shaky, and sore.

Learning how to recognize the signs and symptoms of burnout before it fully manifests has been huge in my health journey. I took the time this morning to do 90 minutes of yoga, and I’m finally starting to feel more like myself again. The way I’m feeling is a good lesson in learning not to push myself to the brink of exhaustion, as I am prone to doing. I had a lot planned for today. But given the way I’m feeling, I’m adjusting my expectations for today and simply writing this post and leaving the rest of the day open. I’m going to try to spend a couple of hours outdoors to revive my spirits, and hopefully enjoy a nice epsom salt bath later.

This peanut butter banana baked oatmeal is a recipe that I created a couple of weeks ago to make mornings feel a little bit more cozy and enjoyable. I find that a nice breakfast sets the stage for a good day, and is actually one of my favourite forms of self care. A big square of this oatmeal and a steaming cup of coffee or tea spells comfort on a chilly weekend morning. That being said, this recipe is also a great weekday option, since it can be refrigerated and then reheated as needed.

To add a bit more protein to your meal, I recommend serving this with some extra nut butter and hemp seeds on top, or alongside something like scrambled eggs, yogurt, or tofu if you are doing a lot of intense exercise. This will help fuel your muscles and aid in recovery!

  • Cook Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Category: Breakfast
  • Cuisine: Vegan
Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax mixed with 2.5 tbsp of water)
  • 2 overripe bananas
  • 1/3 cup smooth natural peanut butter
  • 1 3/4 cup unsweetened plant milk 
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup or coconut sugar 
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract 
  • 1 cup regular rolled oats
  • 1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
  • 1 tsp cinnamon 
  • 1 tsp baking powder 
  • 3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (sub 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips for a more indulgent option!

For serving: 

-Smooth natural peanut butter
-Pomegranate arils or berries
-Hemp seeds 

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a 8×8 or 9×9 inch glass baking dish. 
  2. Prepare the flax egg in a small bowl. Set aside to thicken. 
  3. Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Add the peanut butter, milk, maple syrup or coconut sugar, vanilla, and flax egg; stir to combine. 
  4. To the banana mixture, add the rolled oats, quick cooking oats, cinnamon, and baking powder. Stir to combine. Then fold in the blueberries or chocolate chips. 
  5. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and bake for 30 minutes. Cool for at least 10 minutes before servings. If you serve it immediately, it will be pretty soft and porridge-like. I loved the texture, but if you are looking for a firmer texture, I would recommend refrigerating the cooled baked oatmeal for a few hours before serving.

In this digital age that we find ourselves in, it's hard not to get wrapped up in the numbers: numbers of followers, page views, likes, comments. I'm finding myself increasingly turned off by it all. It's easy to forget about what truly matters: clean air, water, and food. Healthy ecosystems.
Living in such a way where we recognize our place in the natural order of things. Nurturing real life relationships with family, friends, our significant other. The internet has complicated our lives in so many ways, and if you do any sort of work in the online world, then even more so. 
I don't know where I'm going with this, aside from the fact that whenever I am alone with my thoughts in nature, I realize how little the internet really matters in the grand scheme of things. And how simple our lives were prior to when it took over our lives. And how *maybe* we would be better humans without it. This is not to say that I don't appreciate the connections that I have made thanks to it, or the fact that it makes it easier than ever to spread powerful messages. But I don't think anyone should base their self worth or "success" (because what does that even mean?) on how popular they are online. #fridaythoughts I've been fighting a cold all week, and though I thought I had shot it down with my vitamin C, D, and echinacea on repeat, I think the cold just wants to run its course at this point. Sometimes you just gotta be sick! As much as I dislike being forced to slow down, it's a good opportunity for me to catch up on much neglected zzzzs and prime myself for the marathon training that'll be starting up soon! 
Being sick also gives me time to post more recipes 😂, so there's a new recipe up on the blog now for this festive kale, pomegranate, and roasted sweet potato salad! 🥗 Kale is about the only green that I use in my winter salads: it's hearty, holds up well, and it's packed with micronutrients like vitamin K and carotenoids that bolster our eyesight and immune systems! Anyways, the new recipe is up on the blog- upbeetkitchen.com. It's simple, but delicious, and can be gussied up in a number of ways. Enjoy! 🤗 I don't know about you, but I could really do with a big slice of my chocolate chunk cookie pie right about now. 🙃 Never mind that it's breakfast time. Actually, I'd wager that this dessert is actually healthier than your typical North American breakfast, so you could totally enjoy it as your morning meal if you felt so inclined. 😁 Made with a combination of light spelt and oat flour and sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup, featuring a crispy exterior and a gooey center, it's a treat you can feel good about enjoying.
Of course it's best served warm with a scoop of @coconutbliss melting into it. 💃🏼 The recipe is on the blog now- upbeetkitchen.com or via the link in my bio.
Have an awesome day! 🍪 .

It doesn't necessarily need to mimic meat in flavour or texture, but it does need to have plenty of protein and flavour. To that end, my newest veggie burger recipe- these Tempeh, Quinoa, and Sweet Potato Burgers- is quite possibly my best one yet. A hearty base of tempeh, quinoa, and sweet potato is flavoured up with tamari, Dijon, barbecue sauce, herbs and spices, toasted sesame oil, and pecans. The resulting burger is packed with so much heft and protein that even my 👱🏼recipe tester (with one of the heartiest appetites I've ever witnessed, aside from my own 😆🤦🏼‍♀️) was satisfied! 
All the details and the recipe are now on the blog: upbeetkitchen.com! 
Happy noshing! 😋
