Why You’ll Love Vegan Brownie Baked Oatmeal
- No Mushy Texture – One of the biggest complaints about oatmeal is that the texture is mushy; however, with baked oatmeal, that’s not a concern. Baking allows for it to crisp up on the tops and edges and perfect cook the oatmeal itself. If you love oatmeal cookies, you’ll love baked oatmeal as well.
- Lots of Flavor – Most of the time, we hear that people aren’t fans of oatmeal because they lack flavor and they aren’t sure how to fix that. This vegan banana bread baked oatmeal has all the flavor you could want inside of it! Thanks to the banana, nuts, and optional chocolate chips, you have a really great balance of flavor that you’ll love.

Thank you so much! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed the recipe!
Made this today. Super easy to make and so good! I did not add the extra chocolate chips on top and just did a little more peanut butter to swirl around. I could eat the whole tray! LOL!!! Thank you for such a great recipe!
Aww thank you! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the recipe. Thank you for giving it a try!
Easy, quick, delish! Thanks much! I did not use coco or chocolate chips simply because I did not have(I do plan to make again asap trying the chocolate though – same re: trying bannana). Meanwhile, I used stevia in place of maple syrup because I prefer no sugar anything where possible and I used natural, no sugar added peanut butter. I added just a very lil bit tumeric & ginger powder(just because I add to almost all I cook lol) Finally, I baked in my air fryer. It was delish and I will make again! I’m a strict vegan, with sever allergies(not nuts though thank my Lord:)) I truly appreciate your videos and recipes, you always make all very simple. I’ve been following you a few years or so now. God bless you and yours!🙂🙏🏾
