Ingredients

• 1 cup Rolled oats
• 2 cups Milk (or dairy-free alternative)
• 1 Banana, ripe
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 0 Fresh fruit or nuts (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, cinnamon, and salt. Place the saucepan over medium heat.

Step 2

Slice the ripe banana and add it to the saucepan, mashing it gently using the back of a spoon or fork to incorporate it into the mixture.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the oats are creamy and tender.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Divide the oatmeal evenly into two oven-safe ramekins or bowls.

Step 5

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar evenly over the top of each oatmeal portion, spreading it out to form a thin layer.

Step 6

Using a kitchen torch, carefully caramelize the sugar by moving the flame back and forth over the surface until the sugar melts and turns golden brown. Alternatively, you can place the ramekins under a broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.

Step 7

Allow the caramelized sugar to set for 1-2 minutes before serving. Optionally, top with fresh fruit or nuts to add extra flavor and texture.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Brûlée!
