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.
