How to Make Banana Baked Oatmeal

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium-sized (approximately 8x8 inch) casserole dish.
2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) softened butter and 3/4 cup (150g) packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer.
3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
4. Mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork and add them to the bowl along with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
5. In a separate bowl, combine 3 cups (375g) rolled oats, 1 1/2 cups (355ml) milk (any kind), and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
6. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared casserole dish and spread evenly.
8. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally topped with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
