Banana Bread Overnight Oats
Description
This recipe uses mashed bananas to flavor old-fashioned rolled oats soaked overnight in a mix of almond milk and plain yogurt, providing a creamy base. Adding vanilla and almond extracts alongside maple syrup and cinnamon creates a layered sweetness reminiscent of banana bread. Walnuts contribute a nutty crunch and additional texture. The soaking process softens the oats while the banana integrates through the mix.
After chilling, the oats can be eaten cold and topped with additional banana slices, maple syrup, or nut butter, enhancing flavor and presentation. The recipe supports make-ahead preparation, ideal for busy mornings or meal planning.
The oats can be stored up to five days in a sealed container, maintaining freshness and texture, making it a reliable breakfast option. Milk can be substituted to taste.
Ingredients
- 2 banana mashed
- 1 cup rolled oats old fashioned
- 1 cup almond milk or your favorite milk, unsweetened
- ½ cup yogurt or coconut yogurt, plain, Greek
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- pinch of sea salt
- pinch cinnamon optional
- 1-2 Tablespoons walnuts
- banana maple syrup, nut butter, toppings, additional slices
Instructions
- Place all ingredients except the walnuts in a container and stir until well combined. Seal with a lid and place in the fridge overnight (or at least a couple hours).
- Remove from the fridge in the morning and stir. You’ll notice that the oats soak up a lot of the liquid, so you may want to add a little more milk before serving.
- Top oats with walnuts and any other toppings you like. Enjoy cold.
- Overnight oats will keep for up to 5 days in the fridge in a sealed container.
