🧁 Ingredient Notes & Substitutions
To make these banana bread baked oatmeal you will need the following ingredients. Some ingredients are optional.
- Banana – the best is to have overripe bananas for banana bread. The darker the better (brown or black). Overripe bananas make your banana bread sweet and moist.
- Rolled oats – base for the baked oats recipe. I recommend using rolled oats, but you can make it with rolled oats as well. The good news is that rolled oats are gluten-free.
- Milk – I used almond milk for this recipe, but you can use any milk.
- Eggs – are used to add structure to baked goods. I used 1 egg at room temperature. You can also leave out the egg or use a flax egg to make this dish vegan.
- Baking powder – helps the baked oats rise.
- Salt – optional. I used pure, fine sea salt. Adding a pinch of salt enhances the natural flavor of the baked oats. It adds a nice balance to the sweetness of the oats and bananas.
- Cinnamon powder – combines perfectly with banana and it gives the dish the banana bread taste.
- Vanilla extract or honey – is a natural sweetener, you can also use maple syrup.
- Chocolate – use chocolate chips or cut dark chocolate into small pieces. You can also add a chocolate piece in the middle of the baked oats for a melted inside.
- Cocao powder – optional, add some cocoa powder if you want to have chocolate banana bread oats.

⚖️ Baking in grams
The most accurate way to bake is by baking by weight. Measuring cups are very inaccurate and can lead to baking failures. Therefore all of my recipes are posted in grams. I always bake with a scale, so I have a recipe card that automatically converts metrics to US customary, but it can have errors. So I advise you to bake with a digital scale. You can find them on Amazon for a small price.
