Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water
- 3 ripe bananas
- ½ cup soy milk or other plant milk
- 2 tbsp nut butter
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups (120g) rolled or quick oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ⅓ cup add-ins such as chocolate chips, pecans, walnuts, raisins
- ½ tsp cinnamon** optional
Instructions
- Mix ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl and set aside to gel for about 5 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8" baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease the pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, add bananas and mash with a fork.
- Add in all the wet ingredients (flax mixture, milk, nut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract). Stir to combine.
- Add in oats and baking powder. Stir until evenly incorporated.
- Throw in your add-ins of choice and stir again to evenly incorporate.
- Transfer the batter to your prepared baking dish. Bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for at least 10 minutes. The oats will firm up more as it cools. Serve warm with some extra plant milk or yogurt, berries, or enjoy as is! Store leftovers covered in the fridge and reheat in the microwave to serve.
Notes
Cinnamon: I like to add cinnamon when adding in nuts and/or raisins, but when I use chocolate chips I leave out the cinnamon.
