Peanut Butter Banana Baked Oatmeal

WW Recipe of the Day: Crock Pot Peanut Butter and Banana Baked Oatmeal

Martha has mentioned before how much she loves baked oatmeal.

I must confess that I too am now a convert.

Crock Pot Peanut Butter Banana Baked Oatmeal

While I still love oatmeal made the more traditional way, crock pot baked oatmeal is simply more enjoyable and satisfying to me.

Quite simply, it's like eating a not-too-sweet piece of oatmeal cake or muffin.

And it's very versatile too, as this recipe for peanut butter banana baked oatmeal will attest.

With a couple of over-ripe bananas on the counter, I figured why not give it a shot and see how it turns out.

Well, it turned out amazingly well so Neal and I were able to enjoy it for breakfast or as a snack all week!

Peanut Butter Banana Slow Cooker Baked Oatmeal Recipe Notes

Next time I make this, I'd like to try substituting powdered peanut butter (affiliate link) for the real thing.

From what I've read online, it may be ok to use powdered peanut butter (affiliate link) in some recipes to give you the taste of peanut butter, but not all the guilt that comes along with it 🙂

Even though I used two ripe bananas, there wasn't a very strong banana taste - but the oatmeal did remain nice and moist.

I also used Penzeys Cake Spice in place of the ground cinnamon you'll likely find in other similar recipes. This cake spice is a nice blend of cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, allspice, ginger and cloves.

I cut my pieces a little smaller this time, but I was able to still get 10 generous servings from this recipe.
