Ingredients
- 1 small overripe banana, mashed
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of cinnamon
- Pinch of salt (optional)
- 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional)
- Small handful of blueberries
Optional Toppings
- Drizzle of peanut butter or almond butter
- Dollop of yogurt
- Additional berries
- A bit of maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a ramekin or small baking tin or dish with parchment paper. Spray the bottom and sides with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, mash the banana. Mix in the egg, oats, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and maple syrup (if using) until combined. Add in a small handful of blueberries, reserving a few to poke into the top.
- Transfer mixture into the prepared baking dish, poking remaining blueberries (other other desired toppings) into the surface.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the surface is golden and slightly firm to the touch. Allow to sit for 10-15 minutes to cool. You can either eat it right out of the baking dish or run a knife around the edges and carefully remove it from the dish and transfer to a plate. Serve warm with your favorite toppings or store in the fridge for later.
