Equipment

baking dish, casserole dish, pie plate
mixing bowl
small sauce pan

Ingredients

Berry Topping

2 cups mixed berries frozen
1 tsp corn starch
1 tsp water

Baked Oats

2 bananas overripe
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsp light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 cup almond milk unsweetened, or cashew milk or skim
1.5 cups old fashioned oats

Peanut Butter Topping

1/4 cup powdered peanut butter
3 tbsp water
2 tsp granulated sugar I used cane sugar, it is coarser

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375F.
Pour the frozen berries into the small sauce pan, and turn the heat on to medium.
Cook the berries for 10 minutes, or until they are broken down.
Combine the corn starch with the water to form a slurry, then add it to the berries.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until thickened, like jelly. Set aside.
Spray a small baking dish or casserole with cooking spray. I used an 8.5" x 11" 2.5qt casserole dish for this.
Add the bananas to the bottom of a mixing bowl, and mash them with a fork.
Add the applesauce, sugar, baking powder, salt and extract and stir to combine.
Add the milk. Whisk together.
Add the oats. Fold in.
Pour the mixture evenly into the baking dish.
Add the berry topping to the top of the oatmeal, in an even layer.
Combine the powdered peanut butter with the water to form a thick and creamy peanut butter mixture.
Dollup the peanut butter on top of the berry topping, and then swirl gently with a fork.
Sprinkle the top of the dish with the granulated sugar, evenly.
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes.
