We are a “sweets for breakfast” type of family, so I have an arsenal of recipes for sweet breakfasts! This one is a banana bread baked oatmeal that’s so decadent, you’ll want to make it every day! Making this recipe requires just one bowl and about 15 minutes of your time in the morning. It’s refined sugar-free and can be modified for most diet needs! Keep reading to see how to make my favorite chocolate chip banana bread baked oatmeal recipe.

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Baked Oatmeal

This recipe is refined-sugar free, and can be modified to be egg-free, dairy-free, and even gluten-free! All you have to do is substitute the rolled oats for gluten-free oats. I used the One Degree Organics Spelt gluten-free oats. They’re my favorite, and they’ve actually been tested for glyphosate and are considered very safe, if you worry about glyphosate exposure. You can substitute flax egg for the regular eggs, and coconut oil for the melted butter! I used dairy-free milk since we don’t drink dairy at home.

Either way, however you make this recipe, you’ll find that it is absolutely delicious, you’ll have to add it to your breakfast favorites! It’s refined-sugar free as long as you use chocolate chips that don’t have refined sugar. The Hu Kitchen ones I keep in our house have coconut sugar as the main sweetener and the maple syrup acts as the “sweet” part of this recipe. My daughters loved it and kept asking for it every day for breakfast. Honestly though, it would make a great dessert too!
