Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), and grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of melted coconut oil/butter.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir to mix well.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, mashed banana, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil (or butter) until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, and stir until everything is evenly incorporated.

Step 5

Gently fold in the mixed fruits and nuts or seeds (if using).

Step 6

Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Slice into portions and serve warm as-is, or add a drizzle of additional maple syrup and a dollop of yogurt for extra flavor.
