Caramelized Banana Oatmeal

 

OATMEAL:

• 1 cup rolled/steel-cut oats
• 2 cups non-dairy milk I like soy or almond
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ⅛ teaspoon salt

BANANAS:

• 2 bananas sliced into disks
• 1-2 tablespoons refined coconut oil
• 2 tablespoon maple syrup plus more for topping, if desired

Instructions:

• Add the oats and non dairy milk or water to a pot and bring to a boil. 
• Reduce heat to low, add cinnamon, sea salt, and vanilla and let simmer until thickened. 
• While the oatmeal is cooking, add the coconut oil and maple syrup to a large sautee pan. Once it is sizzling, add in the sliced bananas. It’s best to cut them a bit on the thicker side for this recipe.
• Cook on each side for about 5 minutes, or until nice and golden brown. 
• When the oatmeal is done, top with the caramelized bananas and additional maple syrup if desired. 
• Top with an extra pinch of cinnamon, crushed walnuts, pecans, or nut butter and enjoy.
