Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large ripe banana, well mashed
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter (natural, no-stir recommended)
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk of choice (whole, almond, etc.)
  • For topping: banana slices, extra peanut butter drizzle

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth. Add peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and cinnamon. Whisk into a cohesive paste.
  2. Add the rolled oats, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Pour in the milk. Stir until fully combined and no dry pockets remain.
  3. Pour mixture into a greased small baking dish or divide between two greased 10-12 oz ramekins. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  4. In the morning, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Gently stir the soaked oats and top with banana slices.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is set and golden and edges pull away slightly.
  6. Let cool for 1-2 minutes. Drizzle with extra peanut butter and serve warm.

Notes

Do not skip the overnight soak. Use old-fashioned rolled oats, not quick oats. For higher protein, add a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
