Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old fashioned oats (use gluten free oats if needed)
  • 1 1/2 cups Almondmilk Coconutmilk Original Unsweetened
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • pinch sea salt or kosher salt
  • 1-2 ounces dark chocolate, chopped (optional)
  • Honey, for drizzling (optional)
  • Chopped almonds
  • 2 ripe but firm bananas, sliced

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine oats, almond coconutmilk, water, and chia seeds. Bring to a low boil, then simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often until the liquid is absorbed and the oats thicken, about 15 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. If the mixture is too thick, thin with more milk.
  • Meanwhile, heat a skillet to medium-high. Add coconut oil if using. Sprinkle banana slices with coconut sugar. Once hot, add bananas in a single layer and cook for 1 minute per side until caramelized.
  • Divide oatmeal among two bowls. Top with warm caramelized bananas, dark chocolate, a drizzle of honey, and chopped almonds.
  • Enjoy immediately for the best creamy, warm, and caramelized experience!
