Ingredients

  • 3 cups (240 g) rolled oats
  • 2 cups (488 g) 2% milk
  • 2 medium bananas (236 g total, peeled), mashed
  • 2 large eggs (100 g total without shells)
  • 1/2 cup (80 g) raisins
  • 1 Tbsp (13.5 g) olive oil
  • 2 tsp (8 g) baking powder

Method

  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square pan with baking parchment. Combine oats, raisins, baking powder and cinnamon.
  2. Whisk milk, banana, eggs and oil. Stir into the dry ingredients and spread evenly in the pan. Do not taste raw batter.
  3. Bake 35-40 minutes until set, a center toothpick comes out clean and the center reaches 165°F. Cool briefly, cut into nine equal squares and refrigerate promptly in shallow containers.

Allergy / dietary substitutions

Milk: use tolerated soy drink (adds soy) or a suitable oat drink (check labels for wheat and other allergens). Egg: no egg-free version is specified. Check oats and raisins for your allergens.

Training-day additions

Add yogurt (adds milk) or tolerated soy yogurt (adds soy) and fruit.

Store / pack

How the nutrition estimates are made

Each recipe reports approximate calories, protein, carbohydrate and fat per equal serving of its stated base batch. P = protein; C = carbohydrate; F = fat.

One ingredient, one weighed amount

The source stores edible ingredient grams and a USDA FoodData Central SR Legacy record. Dry pasta, oats, rice and lentils use dry weights; raw and cooked meat use matching records. Water and measured seasonings are included.

The calculation

For each nutrient: multiply ingredient grams by the USDA value per 100 g, divide by 100, sum the batch and divide by servings. Round calories to the nearest 10 kcal and macronutrients to the nearest gram.

What can change the result

Brand, draining, natural variation and cooking losses affect the real meal. Canned black/white beans use cooked unsalted bean proxies. Red lentils use generic lentils. The method assumes all listed oil and edible food are consumed; it does not model nutrient retention or evaporation.

What the estimate does not claim

Sides, training-day additions, substitutions and allergy swaps are excluded. Sodium, vitamins and minerals are not reported. These are ingredient estimates, not laboratory results, an assessment of your whole diet or a daily intake target.
