Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe banana mashed
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ¾ cup plant-based milk almond, oat, or soy
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon optional
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or agave nectar optional
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
  2. Add rolled oats, plant-based milk, peanut butter, chia seeds (if using), vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
  3. If you prefer a sweeter taste, add maple syrup or agave nectar and mix thoroughly.
  4. Transfer the mixture into a jar or an airtight container, seal, and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
  5. In the morning, stir the oats well before eating. Enjoy cold, or microwave for 30-60 seconds if you prefer a warm breakfast.
  6. Top with extra banana slices, peanut butter drizzle, or nuts if desired.

Notes

  • Use a very ripe banana for maximum natural sweetness.
  • If the mixture is too thick in the morning, add a splash of milk to loosen it up.
  • Quick oats can be used, but they will result in a softer texture.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a nut-free version, use sunflower seed butter or tahini.
  • Want more protein? Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
