My Greek Yogurt Banana Bread recipe exploded on Pinterest and brought thousands of new readers to my blog. Since baking with greek yogurt appears to be a hot topic, I’m excited to share one of my favorite breakfast foods with you today. I alternate between making this recipe and steel-cut oats every week as part of my meal prep.
Any kind of fruit can be included. I usually just use the mixed frozen berries from Costco. There’s no need to thaw them first, just throw them in frozen.
This oatmeal is relatively low in sugar. If you like it sweeter, just add a little sugar when you serve it. Personally, I like it as is. Between the small amount of the sweetener and the fruit, it’s plenty sweet for me.
This recipe is one your whole family is going to love. It almost seems like you’re eating dessert for breakfast, but it’s good for you!
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt

- 1 cup plain greek yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup, honey, agave, sugar or brown sugar

- Mix all ingredients. You can do this right inside the dish.

Thanks for sharing at the Foodies and Crafties Soiree! I love baked oatmeal for breakfast- pinned!
This is a great recipe, where I can make it ahead of time. This is a great share!!
What a great idea to have on hand in the refrigerator to make hot breakfast easy! I have to admit that I often get sucked into the cereal rut due to how easy it is, but I know that cereal isn’t helping my grocery budget (nor is it very healthy). I’ll definitely be whipping up a pan of this!
Thanks for sharing at Saturday Dishes- we hope you’ll continue to link up as we take over the party!
Hi. I just made this and tried a small piece. I left out the eggs (because I forgot lol), used frozen fruit, almond milk and light syrup. Tasted delicious and flavorful. I cut into six good sized pieces. Will make again and have breakfast for six days.
Hi! Thank you for sharing this great recipe! I made it with blueberries and peaches, and I used maple syrup. Love!
Two questions:
1) How many serving sizes do you consider this to be? (I cut it into 9 squares)
2) I’m considering making a double batch next time to freeze one for later. Have you tried freezing this before, and did it turn out well?
Thanks!
How many servings would this be for 21 day fix?
How many servings would this be for 21 day fix?
One recipe makes 8 servings.
On this one and your other recipes does it matter steel cut vs. old fashioned?
For this recipe, it really needs old-fashioned oats to achieve the right texture.
Sounds so yummy! Really want to try. I read in the comments this is 8 servings? Does that mean you get a 1 x 1″ piece as a serving since it’s made in an 8×8 pan? What is the serving size? Thanks so much!!
You cut the 8×8 pan into 8 pieces, so cut it down the middle one way, then in 4 pieces the other way. So there are 8 pieces total for the pan. It’s a pretty good sized piece.
This recipe looks yum and I would love to make it. I would need to leave out the Greek yogurt as my lb is dairy free. Should I replace it with anything (he’s soya free too)? Or maybe just have Greek yogurt on the side.
You can replace it with extra banana or applesauce.
They make lactose free Greek yogurt I buy it all the time!.
Just tried this recipe today and it’s DELICIOUS! I thought I had a pretty good recipe for baked oatmeal but yours is better. My only mods were subbing cashew milk for regular milk and using a pumpkin spice blend in place of the cinnamon.
Could I leave out the fruit and add fresh when I eat it?
