Description
Overnight Oats with Caramelized Banana are a delightful breakfast option that combines the sweetness of caramelized bananas with the creamy texture of oats. This dish is not only delicious but also nutritious, making it perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar (for caramelizing)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (plus extra for topping)
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (for topping)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight.
- In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add brown sugar and let it melt. Slice the ripe bananas into rounds and add them to the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the bananas are golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Once the oats have soaked overnight, remove them from the fridge. Layer the oats in a glass or bowl, starting with a generous spoonful of the soaked oats at the bottom. Top with a layer of caramelized banana slices, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the oats.
- Transfer the Overnight Oats with Caramelized Banana into serving bowls. You can add extra toppings like chopped walnuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of honey if desired. Enjoy your delicious breakfast!
Notes
- Store any leftover Overnight Oats with Caramelized Banana in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
- If you prefer warm oats, microwave them for about 30 seconds before serving.
- For longer storage, consider freezing the oats without the caramelized bananas.
