Nutella S’mores Baked Oatmeal Recipe (Vegan)
Love nutella? What about S’mores? Well, you’re in for a treat because this Nutella S’mores baked oatmeal recipe is BOTH! And it’s actually healthy for you! It’s vegan, gluten-free, and packed with plant based protein!
Healthy Nutella Breakfast Recipe
Despite how nutella is portrayed as a “healthy” breakfast food, it’s really not that healthy for you. It’s loaded with extra processed sugars and oils. So how do we make this baked oatmeal healthy with nutella?!
Here’s the shortened version:
- Homemade Healthy Nutella– We use this recipe to cut down on calories and eliminate processed sugars!
- Vegan plant-based protein powder- Here is the brand I use and love.
- Oats- find the health benefits of oats here.
- Plant based milk- High in potassium and iron
- Homemade 6 Ingredient Graham Crackers– No artificial ingredients & lightly sweetened with honey or maple syrup.
- Banana- Rich in potassium. I use them in all my baked oatmeal recipes
- Homemade Marshmallows, Smashmallows, or Vegan Marshmallows- All are great options and have no artificial flavors or colors. I use smashmallows in my healthy rice krispie treats too!
Baked Oatmeal Recipe Without Eggs or Milk
This oatmeal recipe uses absolutely no eggs or regular milk! We use plant based milk as listed above. Feel free to use any milk you have on hand though! And even if you don’t have milk, you can sub with good ole’ H2O (water). The oats and protein powder make this oatmeal bake soft, chewy, and slightly fluffy without having to add any eggs.
This Nutella S’mores Baked Oatmeal is high protein and made with my very favorite vegan vanilla protein powder. I use this protein powder in my Matcha Overnight Oats too. Another solid, healthy, breakfast recipe.

Nutella S'mores Baked Oatmeal (Vegan)
Love nutella? What about S'mores? Well, you’re in for a treat because this baked oatmeal flavor is BOTH! And it’s actually healthy for you! It’s vegan, gluten-free, and packed with plant based protein!
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Mashed Banana (about 2 very ripe bananas) (See Note 5 for substitutions)
- 2 Cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- ⅓ Cup Unflavored Plant-Based Protein Powder (See Note 3 for sub options)
- 2 Cups Plant-Based Milk + ¼ Cup Water (See Note 1)
- ½ Cup Homemade Nutella + More for Topping (You can use regular nutella, but this will make it higher in calories and sugar.)
- ¼ Cup Dairy-Free Mini Chocolate Chips
- ¾ Cup Broken Up Homemade Graham Crackers (or gluten-free brand)
- 2 Tbs Crushed Graham Cracker Crumbs
- ¾ Cup (about 7) Homemade Marshmallows, Smashmallows, or Vegan Marshmallows
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. In a 2 quart baking dish mash the banana with the back of a fork. Add all other ingredients into baking dish except chocolate chips, graham crackers and marshmallows. Stir until mixture is combined.
3. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top and press them down into baked oatmeal with back of fork. (You can add extra chocolate chips on top if desired)
4. Bake at 350 F. for 30 minutes then pull out of oven (do not turn oven off). Top with broken up graham crackers, then sprinkle on crushed graham crackers. Lastly, top with marshmallows (I left some whole, and ripped some in pieces).
5. Place oatmeal back in oven to bake for another 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Wait at least 10 minutes for it to cool and set.
7. Serve with fresh berries, banana slices, nut butter, homemade nutella, or your favorite milk!
8. Store in the fridge for up to a week and enjoy a premade healthy breakfast all week long!
Notes
- Liquid Measurement: You can use any liquid of choice for this recipe. I use a combination of plain unsweetened almond milk and water to make the oats thick and creamy. You can swap the milk for all water or do a different combination. I have found that this combo works perfectly though!
- Oats: Most oats are gluten-free, just make sure by checking the packaging! I love this brand.
- Protein Powder: Any plant based protein powder works just be aware that if your protein powder has a strong flavor, it may overpower the flavor of the nutella. Feel free to use less protein powder to avoid this. I DON'T recommend using whey protein powder because it can change the texture of the baked oatmeal drastically. I have had people use whey and they love it, so just be aware of the texture difference.
- Bananas Aren’t Ripe? If you want to make this baked oatmeal, but your bananas aren’t ripe or soft enough, feel free to pop them in the oven at 350 F. for 15 minutes until the skin is black and bananas are soft. Full instructions can be found on my Chocolate Banana Bread recipe.
- Don’t have bananas? You can sub the banana with ½ Cup of your favorite yogurt or 1 Cup Unsweetened Apple Sauce. Adjust the amount of honey/maple syrup to taste if needed.

When I saw the pic of this, I knew I had to try it. With 3 teenage boys, you never know how they’ll respond to ANY recipe. Let’s just say….they LOVED it!!!! There was nothing left after I had my “taste”, so it was a hit. (Due to lack of hazelnuts at our store…I had to use real Nutella!)

AMAZING! This made my day Sandy! Thank you so much for the sweet words. I have four older brothers myself so I know how tricky it can be with healthy recipes. I am sooo encouraged that they loved it! Thank you so much!!! 🙂
