Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 2 cups non-dairy milk
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt

Pecan Oat Streusel

  • ½ cup whole pecans
  • ¼ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 4 tbsp melted coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Baking Dish: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until mostly smooth with some lumps. Whisk in the non-dairy milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the wet mixture. Stir thoroughly with a wooden spoon or spatula until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  4. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the oatmeal mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish and spread it out to distribute uniformly.
  5. Prepare Streusel Topping: Place the pecans and oats into a high-speed blender or food processor and pulse until you achieve a coarse meal texture. Transfer this to a bowl and stir in the brown sugar, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, and melted coconut oil until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  6. Top the Oatmeal: Sprinkle the streusel mixture generously over the oatmeal batter in the baking dish. You can adjust the amount to your preference, using all or part of the streusel.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is firm and no longer jiggles when gently shaken.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for 5 minutes before cutting into nine even portions. Serve warm for a comforting breakfast treat.
