This baked oatmeal with bananas recipe is quick and easy. It only requires one bowl my friend. So why not start the day with something you love, a little chocolate and peanut butter.

I like to top this baked oatmeal recipe with peanut butter and then warm it up. The melted chocolate chips and warm peanut butter taste delicious together.
