Ingredients (Makes 1 Small Loaf | Serves 2–4)
- 2 cups rolled oats (use certified gluten-free if needed)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk (dairy or plant-based like almond, oat, or coconut)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- ¼ tsp salt
- Optional Add-ins: chia seeds, flaxseeds, chopped nuts, dried fruit, or vanilla extract
How to Make It – Step-by-Step
Step 1: Prep the Oven
Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small loaf pan (around 6×3 inches) or line with parchment paper.
Step 2: Blend the Batter
Add oats, eggs, milk, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy (30–60 seconds). Gently stir in any optional add-ins.
Step 3: Pour & Bake
Pour batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Step 4: Cool & Enjoy
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy warm or toasted with your favorite toppings.
What Makes It Work
- Oats as a Base: Nutritious, filling, and naturally sweet.
- Eggs: They hold everything together without needing flour.
- Simple Ingredients: Pantry staples with big results.
Delicious Variations
- Add Protein: Stir in a scoop of protein powder or swirl in nut butter.
- Make It Sweet: Add mashed banana, maple syrup, or honey.
- Savory Twist: Omit cinnamon and add herbs, chopped olives, or shredded cheese.
- Superfood Boost: Mix in chia, flax, or hemp hearts.
Pro Tips for Success
- Stick to Rolled Oats: Quick oats may be too mushy, and steel-cut oats won’t blend well.
- Blend Thoroughly: The smoother the batter, the better the texture.
- Storage: Store in the fridge up to 5 days or freeze slices for longer.
How to Serve
- Toasted with Almond Butter & Berries – A romantic, health-conscious breakfast.
- With Eggs or Avocado Toast – Makes a perfect brunch addition.
- As a Snack Platter: Slice into cubes and pair with hummus, yogurt, or dips.
