Servings: 1
Calories: 438kcal
Equipment
- 1 mason jar with lid 12 to 14 ounces
Ingredients
- 1 Ripe Banana
- ½ Cup Old Fashioned Oats
- ½ Cup Milk of your choice
- 1 Tablespoon Chopped Pecans
- 2 Teaspoons Real Maple Syrup
- ½ Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- ½ Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- ⅛ Teaspoon Coarse Sea Salt
Instructions
- Place the banana in a small bowl and smash it well.
- Add the milk to a mason jar and add the oats to the milk.
- Add the banana, syrup, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, and chopped nuts to the jar.
- Stir well and secure the lid on the jar. Place in the fridge to chill overnight or for at least 4 hours (I like it best overnight). Stir before eating or heat it up if you prefer.
Notes
- I store these in sealed mason jars, in the fridge, for up to 5 days. Do not freeze. Perfect for making a few days in advance.
- You can use walnuts or almonds in place of the pecans, or whatever you prefer on hand.
- Adjust syrup to your preferred sweetness level. Honey can be used in place of Maple syrup and more can be added as you’re getting ready to eat it, if need be.
- Use whatever milk you like. Whole milk will make the oats more creamy but low fat milk also works well. I have used plant based milk like soy and almond milk too. The texture will be slightly different but still good.
