Why I Like this Recipe

I enjoy this baked oats recipe because it’s cosy and filling but not too heavy. Banana and pear add just the right amount of sweetness, and the almond butter and seeds make it more satisfying. It’s easy to bake ahead, portion, and store in the fridge for busy mornings. The middle stays soft and spoonable, and the golden top makes it feel like a breakfast treat instead of just a bowl of oats.

Tips and Variations

  • Pumpkin seeds give a deeper, nuttier flavour and add extra crunch.
  • You can use oat milk or dairy milk instead of almond milk, depending on what you have.
  • Add a small scoop of protein powder if you want to make it more filling.
  • Stir in a handful of berries for a fresh, slightly tangy flavour.
  • Serve it warm with Greek yoghurt for a creamy contrast.
  • Bake ahead and cut into portions for easy breakfasts during the week.
  • You can eat it cold from the fridge or warm it gently for a softer texture.

Meal Storage

Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat gently if you prefer it warm.

Freezer tips

Cut into portions and freeze for up to 2 months. Wrap each piece well to keep it from drying out. This works well for long-term meal prep.

Thaw overnight in the fridge for the best texture. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
