Esta Avena horneada con mantequilla de cacahuete is a simple, healthy high-protein breakfast perfect as a one-pan breakfast brunch or to meal prep a week of healthy oatmeal.
Tener una different baked oatmeal flavor every week is a fantastic way of enjoying a healthy breakfast. This version mixes two of my favorite food, peanut butter, and chocolate, into this simple gluten-free baked oatmeal recipe. This recipe has a few different ingredients compared to my classic Baked Oatmeal Recipe, Mi Avena horneada con limón y arándanos, o mi Avena horneada con fresas. This version is dairy-free, with no yogurt or butter, and the texture comes out ultra-creamy and smooth.
Peanut butter baked oatmeal is similar to a classic oatmeal recipe, but it’s baked in one large dish with a creamy texture and a blend of three main ingredients: oats, flax egg, peanut butter, and plant-based milk. It also contains a few other ingredients for flavor and sweetness. It’s a healthy, high-protein breakfast without protein powder, perfect for meal prep or bringing a lovely brunch idea to share with the whole family.

Why You Should Try This Breakfast
There are a few reasons why you should try this chocolate peanut butter baked oatmeal for breakfast.
- Es saludable – Oats are healthy whole grains packed with proteins, fiber, and vitamins like folates, vitamin E, and iron. It’s a great wholegrain breakfast food to keep you full and provide energy in the morning.
- Rapido y Facil – No more excuses to skip breakfast in the morning. This recipe serves six breakfasts and takes under 10 minutes to rewarm in your microwave in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Barato – Oats are one of the less expensive cereals, and you can find very low-cost natural peanut butter or make your own peanut butter following my peanut butter recipe.
- Taste Amazing – If you love oatmeal for breakfast, this baked oatmeal with peanut butter is even better. Baking oatmeal turns the texture into a cake-like consistency, similar to a slice of cake.
Ingredientes y sustituciones
Solo necesitas unos pocos ingredientes sencillos:
- Copos de avena tradicionales or a combination of quick oats and old-fashioned oats.
- Chia Semillas – Chia seeds are healthy superfoods rich in fiber, healthy fat, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B3, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Phosphorus, and Zinc.
- Canela – por el sabor.
- Levadura en polvo – to give them more texture.
- Chispas de Chocolate – I prefer to use sugar-free dark chocolate chips.
- Extracto de vainilla – por el sabor.
- Sirope de arce puro or any refined sugar-free liquid sweetener you love, like agave syrup, date syrup, coconut nectar, and more.
- Leche no láctea of choice. I like unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk to increase the proteins in the recipe.
- Mantequilla de maní – You can also use almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter.
- Huevo de lino or 1/4 cup mashed banana
How To Make Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal
The instructions for this recipe are the most basic and suit anyone trying to eat healthily but only like to cook a little.
You can make this recipe just before serving or the day before and store it in the fridge.
- First, stir all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, including the chocolate chips. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk the liquid ingredients until the peanut butter is well incorporated into the dairy-free milk and looks like peanut butter, a bit brown in color.
- Stir the wet and dry ingredients, then pour them into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake the oatmeal on the center rack of the oven for 35 to 45 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until golden brown on top and slightly dry. It shouldn’t be wet or soft in the center. If soft, bake a bit longer until firm.
- Let the oatmeal cool down for 15 minutes in the dish before slicing and serving.
Instrucciones de almacenamiento
Store this peanut butter oatmeal bake in the fridge, foil the pan, and keep it for up to 5 days in the refrigerator. You can also freeze them for later. I like to slice portions and freeze them individually. It’s easier to thaw one serving at a time the day before breakfast. Then, simply pop the frozen slice in the fridge and rewarm it the next day.
Rewarming the baked oatmeal is easy. Add the portion n a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for about 1 minute or until hot in the center. You can also add a bit of non-dairy milk in a non-stick saucepan, add the baked oatmeal serving and rewarm over medium heat.
Variaciones de sabor
If you don’t like chocolate chips or prefer low-sugar baked oatmeal, try some fruits or nuts instead. Here are some tasty options to pair with the peanut butter flavor in this recipe:
- Arándanos
- Frambuesas
- Almendras picadas
- Maní picado
- Coco rallado sin azúcar
Intercambios para personas con alergias
You can use this recipe even if you have food allergies, simply use some of the options below.
- Sin cacahuetes – This recipe works with any nut and seed butter, including almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter.
- Sin nueces – Use seed butter for a nut-free option. Try sunflower seed butter or tahini. Keep in mind that sunflower seed butter, when baked and in contact with baking powder, turns food green. It’s safe to eat, but the color might be unappealing. Use soy milk or coconut milk.
- Sin gluten – Choose a gluten-free certified oat brand and wheat-free baking powder.
- Sin semillas de chía – You can skip the chia seeds. They add proteins and firmness to the recipe. Or use a tablespoon of flax meal.
Preguntas frecuentes
Find below my answers to the most common questions you have about this recipe.
Yes, baking powder is added to give a cake texture to the oatmeal.
It’s totally optional, the recipe is a bit more packed without baking powder but still tastes amazing
You can blend the oats in a high-speed blender, and use the formed oat flour as a dry ingredient in the recipe to make peanut butter-baked oats. The texture will resemble my blended baked oat recipe, it will be dense, a bit gummy, and packed with chocolate chips in the crumb. I would recommend splitting the recipe into 6 ramekins and baking them all at once. The texture of individually baked oats is less dense.
That’s the best combination of ingredients to start the day. Oats are a healthy slow carbohydrate, rich in fiber, while peanut butter is an excellent plant-based protein source.
The great thing about this combo is that e fats and fibers slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
It means it won’t raise blood sugar levels too quickly and keep your energy steady through the morning – no energy crash or food cravings guarantee.
More Baked Oats And Oatmeal Recipes
I love this trend of oatmeal recipes. They are so easy and healthy! Here are some more oats recipes for you to try for breakfast.
Thank, thank, thank you, conscious PLANT KITCHEN! This is the first Oatmeal Bake recipe I tried that is a keeper! It’s texture and taste are amazing. We added fresh blueberries and chopped pecans this time and I”m looking forward to trying other flavor combos in the future. I’m incorporating more plant based meals so including this in our regular rotation is a no-brainer. Happy new year to all.
My pleasure, thanks for the lovely feedback!
What is a flaxseed egg? I’ve never heard of this before. I see it in a few of your recipes. Does that mean I can substitute flaxseed for an egg and vice versa? Thanks
Read instruction 2 in the recipe, it tells you how to make the flax egg. But yes, a flax egg replace 1 egg, it’s naturally made from grounded flaxseed and water, and it has the same binding properties as an egg, plus it adds fibers to your food.
I make this once a week. I put a new variation in each week to keep it different each week. Love it.
That’s amazing ! thank you for sharing with me.
This was such a winner with the adults and kids in my house. So quick to make and so delicious. The only thing I would change next time is I would leave out the salt but that’s only because the peanut butter I use is quite salty. This will definitely be made on a regular basis, I might even try it with crunchy peanut butter next time or sprinkling crushed peanuts on top for some added texture.
Gracias!
Could I use steel cut oats?
It would work, but the texture might be a bit more crunchy and crumbly.
I used quick oats and it took half the time to cook. Great recipe 🙂
Nice, thanks for letting me know!! I had never tried quick oats only!
