Ingredients

  • 3 cups old fashioned oats use labeled gluten free oats to make this recipe gluten free
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • cup pure maple syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium sized bowl, combine dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine.
  • Mash 1 ½ of the bananas. Add to dry ingredients and use a fork to incorporate it the best you can.
  • In another bowl, combine 2 eggs, lightly beaten, maple syrup, vanilla extract and milk. I used whole milk but you can use whatever you have on hand. Whisk together and add to your dry ingredients.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix using a spoon or spatula. Fold in one cup of the sliced strawberries into the batter taking care to be gentle (no strawberry smushing here, we want these intact!).
  • Grease a 9x9 baking pan. Pour in the oatmeal mixture in and spread evenly. Slice the remaining banana half and top the oatmeal. Add the remaining half cup of sliced strawberries.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes until the center is set. Allow to cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.

  • Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 45 seconds.
