  • Step 2

    Combine oats, banana, egg, baking powder, salt, almond milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon in a blender. Blend until all is combined well, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in blueberries. Fill mixture into the prepared ramekins.

  • Step 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until firm, about 25 minutes.

    • Cook's Notes:

    If you cut this to one serving, still use 1 egg. I tried both old-fashioned oats and quick oats and thought both worked out the same.

    The texture will change if these sit, and the next day they will be very dense; however, I still enjoyed mine reheated in the microwave.

    Variations:

    Banana Nut Bread Blended Oats: Omit blueberries. Add 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg and increase cinnamon to 1 teaspoon. Fold in 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts after blending.

    Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Blended Oats: Omit blueberries, and omit cinnamon (if you like). Add 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter before blending. Stir in 2 tablespoons chocolate chips after blending.
