Watch this video on how to make Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal!
You know those days when you’re trying to eat a healthy breakfast, but you have no time because you’re exhausted and woke up too late and now you’re about to be late to work and it would just be so easyyyyyy to grab donuts and a latte on the way to work? (mmmmm, donuts.) This Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal, friends, is for those type of days.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve intended to have a healthy eating day and ended up miserably failing because I didn’t have something healthy on hand. Tell me I’m not the only who’s been there???
One of the best ways that I’ve personally found to tackle temptation when life gets busy is to keep grab-and-go healthy eats available and often in sight. For example, this Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal can be made in advance, cut into squares, and stored in sandwich bags so that it’s ready to take on-the-go or satisfy an I’M STARVING spell when you get home from work!

I love this Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal because of how practical it is, how nutritious it is, but mostly….how AMAZING it is! Especially when it comes straight out of the oven…..oh. my. goodness. So good. Warm, sweet, wholesome, hints of honey, bits of coconut sugar, melt-in-your-mouth goodness. This Blueberry Banana Baked Oatmeal can also be reheated in the microwave to get that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste!

How could I incorporate some protein powder into these?
Christine McMichael replied:
I haven’t tried that, but I would try replacing 1/4 cup of oats with a 1/4 cup of protein powder. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
Cheryl DeKoevend says:
Hi Christine.
I buy a bag of Stevia instead of the packets. Do you know how much Stevia would equate with the packets?
This looks awesome. I can’t wait to try it. Thank you for the recipe.
Christine McMichael replied:
Hi, Cheryl! It would be about 1 tsp of Stevia per packet. Enjoy!
Evin says:
Just made this and it was delicious! Do you recommend storing it in the fridge or is room temperature okay?
Christine McMichael replied:
So glad to hear, Evin! 🙂 Either way should work fine as far as storing goes. Just make sure to let it cool completely before storing and then place in an airtight container!
Michelle says:
This is such a great idea to make them ahead, I struggle with breakfast for my husband because he leaves so early and I’m struggling to stay away. I could just grab one from the freezer the night before.

I would have never thought to take squares of baked oatmeal on the go, but it’s a really fun idea! I usually have a more liquidy type of oatmeal, but yours looks fantastic!

I love grab n’ go breakfasts, and make ahead breakfasts! This one looks delicious! And yes, when “healthy” isn’t there, I don’t typically make a good choice…
