This Nutella Baked Oatmeal tastes like a giant chocolate-y hazelnut muffin but is actually low in sugar and made with OATS!
It is also gluten-free, dairy-free, made with a few simple ingredients (that you probably already have on hand!), and is sweetened only with 1/2 of a banana and my low sugar homemade Nutella!
What you need for this Nutella Baked Oatmeal:
- oats— obv! I typically use sprouted oats organic for easier digestion and to avoid glyphosate but any rolled oats will do.
- 1/2 banana— the spottier the banana, the better. This is a key sweetener in the recipe and spottier bananas are much sweeter than green/just ripe bananas.
- cocoa powder— unsweetened. You can also use cacao powder.
- 1 egg— for added protein and to create a muffin-like texture. I have not tried this recipe with any egg substitutes but I have had quite a few people tell me that my baked oatmeal recipes work with a flax egg!
- milk of choice— I used homemade cashew milk but feel free to swap in your preffered kind of milk! Oat, almond, coconut, or regular milk will all work great.
- a pinch of salt
- baking soda
- nutella— I reccomend using my Healthy Homemade Nutella (I promise it’s easy and taste EVEN better than regular nutella!)
