Baked oats in a mug
Be the first to rate it
Oats, banana, egg and milk with diced strawberries, microwaved in a mug until set like a soft baked oatmeal cake.
Ingredients
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- Dash of salt
- ½ medium banana mashed
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons milk (any kind)
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 medium strawberries diced
Equipment
- mug
Directions
- Spray a large microwavable mug or small bowl with cooking spray. Add the oats, sugar, baking powder and salt, and stir together.
- Stir in the banana, egg, milk and vanilla. Gently fold in the strawberries.
- Microwave on medium power for 3 to 3½ minutes, until the center is mostly set. Leave it in the microwave for 1 minute.
- Serve right away.
Notes
Prep 5 minutes, cook 3 minutes. For a sweeter taste, increase the sugar by ½ teaspoon, or use honey or maple syrup instead. The dry part (oats, sugar, baking powder, salt) could be pre-measured. Safety: the egg must be fully cooked; if the center is still wet after standing, microwave in short bursts.
