HTML Directions

1

Gather Ingredients

Gather the ingredients.
2

Preheat Oven

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 F. Spray an 8-ounce ramekin or oven-safe mug with cooking spray.
3

Blend Ingredients

Combine the egg, milk, sweetener, oats, baking powder, salt, and banana in a blender. Alternatively, if using an immersion blender, combine in a bowl. Blend the oat mixture until smooth.
4

Prepare Ramekin

Pour the blended oat mixture into the ramekin or mug and swirl all but about 1 teaspoon of the mini chocolate chips into the batter.
5

Bake the Oats

Top with the remaining 1 teaspoon mini chocolate chips and cinnamon sugar, if using. Bake the blended oats for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs clinging to it.

A viral TikTok recipe inspired this recipe for easy breakfast baked oats. It's a simple blended oatmeal recipe made in an individual ramekin or mug that can be scaled up to serve 2, 3, 4, or more.

A 1-cup ramekin or oven-safe mug is a perfect size for these blended baked oats, and there are tons of possible variations. The basic formula is sweetened with a bit of maple syrup or honey along with a banana. The banana sweetens the mixture a bit more, and there isn't much banana flavor at all. If you prefer baked oats without a banana, you can replace it with 1/4 cup of applesauce or another banana substitute.

The oat mixture is blended to make a smooth batter, so the oatmeal has a cake-like texture. Besides the enjoyment of having cake for breakfast, blended baked oats are whole grain and gluten-free!

A standard-size high-speed blender works well for making 2 or more servings, but for 1 serving, your best bet is a smaller bullet-style blender or immersion blender.

Tips

A single-serving blender is the best choice for making one serving.
Make sure to spray the ramekin with cooking spray or grease it with oil or butter.
The baked oats will be dry if overbaked. Stick to about 20 to 22 minutes for 8-ounce ramekins or about 15 to 17 minutes for 6-ounce ramekins.
If you don't have a blender, you may use oat flour to make baked oats. Alternatively, use a food processor to grind rolled oats into a smooth flour. Using oat flour, make the batter with a whisk or electric mixer.

Recipe Variations

Chocolate-Chocolate Chip: Add 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder to the blender.
Blueberry Lemon: Add 1/4 teaspoon of grated lemon zest to the blender. Omit the chocolate chips, stir about 8 to 12 blueberries into the batter in the ramekin, and sprinkle a few more blueberries over the top.
Cinnamon Berry: Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the blender. Omit the chocolate chips and stir a few sliced strawberries or whole blueberries or raspberries into the batter in the ramekin and top with a few more sliced berries. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and bake as directed.
Pumpkin Pecan: Omit the banana and chocolate chips. Add an extra 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1/4 cup of canned pumpkin, 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, a dash of nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla, and 3 tablespoons of milk. Swirl about 2 tablespoons of finely chopped pecans into the ramekin and top with a teaspoon of chopped pecans and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar—bake as directed.
With Jam: Swirl 1 to 2 tablespoons of jam or preserves into the batter in the ramekin. Top with mini chocolate chips or berries.
Vegan Baked Oats: Use an egg substitute or a flax "egg." In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons of water. Refrigerate the mixture for 15 minutes, add to the blender and proceed with the recipe. Use vegan chocolate chips or a berry or chopped fruit mix-in.
To make the baked oats without banana, replace it with about 1/4 cup of applesauce.
Some optional topping ideas include toasted coconut, caramel or chocolate sauce, sugar-free syrup or fruit syrup, whipped topping, vanilla or plain yogurt, chopped toasted nuts, or demerara sugar.

How to Store

If you make a larger batch and have leftover portions, cover the ramekins and refrigerate them for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the microwave for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, until hot.

Can I use steel-cut oats in baked oats?

Steel cut oats may be used, but the texture will not be as smooth as with rolled oats.
