Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 large spotty banana, mashed The riper, the better for sweetness.
  • ½ cup creamy all-natural peanut butter Use one that is runny.
  • 3 tbsp real maple syrup or honey
  • 1 ¾ cups unsweetened almond milk or oat milk Coconut milk can be used for a tropical twist.
  • 1 large egg Can replace with 1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp warm water for vegan option.
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats Approximately 200g.
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch square dish with cooking spray or avocado oil.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed banana, peanut butter, maple syrup, milk, egg (or flaxseed mixture), and vanilla extract. Whisk until fully combined.
  3. Stir in the rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and ground flaxseed (if not using an egg). Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated. If your batter looks too stiff, add a splash more milk.
Baking
  1. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  2. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  3. Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Drizzle with extra peanut butter and garnish with banana slices if desired.
