Lightly sweet, fudgy, easy to slice and store for a few days running, these baked oats one of my favourite grab and go breakfasts or snacks. I have been known on occasion to have them for dinner.
With “back to school” at the forefront of most people’s minds, whether it’s because they have kids themselves or because the traffic is about to get a whole lot more congested, these baked oats will just save you a little bit of time in the morning. They also make a great alternative lunch box filler!
The banana flavour doesn’t come through too strongly, but you can replace it with apple puree or even some sweet potato pumpkin puree. It provides a little sweetness but it’s main purpose is binding and overall texture!
