Ingredients

1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats

1 ripe banana mashed

2/3 cup almond milk

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey optional

1 pinch salt

1 tablespoon chopped pecans or walnuts optional

Instructions

1. Mash the ripe banana in a bowl until mostly smooth.

2. Add almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup or honey and mix well.

3. Stir in the gluten-free rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.

4. Transfer the mixture into a jar or airtight container.

5. Place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight so the oats soften and thicken.

6. Before serving, stir the oats and top with banana slices, chopped pecans, and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

Use a very ripe banana because it adds natural sweetness and stronger banana bread flavor.

If the oats become too thick after chilling, simply stir in a splash of milk before serving.
