Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 2 bananas – 1 mashed, 1 sliced for topping
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream (from full-fat coconut milk)

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together almond milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
  2. Add the mashed banana and oats. Stir to combine.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened to desired consistency.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Divide oatmeal between two bowls.
  6. Top each with sliced bananas, a dollop of coconut cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for the creamiest texture.
  • Add protein powder or nut butter for a boost of protein.
  • Oatmeal may darken slightly after refrigeration due to banana — this is normal.
  • Swap maple syrup for mashed dates or stevia for a sugar-free version.
  • Top with berries, nuts, or chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.
