Banana Baked Oats
Variety is the spice of life and if mama earth gives you something as magical as BANANAS you do everything you can with them!!
Happy Mornings fellow humans! I have been on a bit of a baked oatmeal kick as of late. I’ve been embracing it for over a year now. I love the different texture it provides, the warmth of the breakfast and the fact that it saves like a dream, aka 2 breakfasts!
I have made a few different variations but my latest obsession is the one I am sharing today. Bananas are a staple in my kitchen. I use them in my smoothies, baked good and most definitely on my and IN my oatmeals. In a pinch they are a winning breakfast too— Coffee and banana and GO!
