Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp butter or flavorless oil 14 g
  • 3 ripe bananas sliced
  • 2 ½ cups frozen or 1 ½ cups thawed mixed berries 12 oz, 340 g
  • ½ cup fine or medium grind bulgur 94 g
  • ½ cup rolled oats 67 g
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar 25 g
  • ¼ tsp salt 1.5 g
  • 1 tsp cinnamon 2.6 g
  • 2 cups milk 473 mL, whichever variety you prefer
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 5 mL
  • ½ cup coconut flakes 20 g, optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat butter or oil over medium/high heat in a cast iron skillet (if possible) or large frying pan.
  2. Add sliced bananas and cook about 3 minutes on each side, until bananas begin to brown and caramelize. Remove from heat.
  3. If you have a cast iron skillet, we’ll bake this right in the skillet. If you do not, grease a medium-sized baking dish and transfer bananas into the dish. Evenly layer thawed berries onto the bananas.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix bulgur, oats, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour evenly over berries.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix milk, eggs, and vanilla. Slowly pour evenly over bulgur mixture.*
  6. Sprinkle coconut flakes over top.
  7. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 C) for 45 to 60 minutes, until top is lightly browned.
  8. Enjoy warm or cold, drizzled with honey or topped with a dollop of Greek yogurt and fresh berries.

Notes

  • *Alternatively, you can swap steps 4 and 5 to have the grains on the bottom and fruit on top, like I did in this video. It makes for a more colorful bake!
  • Storage: You can store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Just reheat a slice in the microwave or the whole skillet in the oven.
