Ingredients
1 banana
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
1/3 cup quick oats
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Mash the banana in a small bowl until smooth, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Crack the egg into the bowl with the banana and beat until well combined.
Add the oats, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt, mixing until everything is evenly coated.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and pour in the oat mixture.
Stir gently with a heat-safe spatula, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the oats take on a scrambled egg-like consistency. Continue cooking until creamy and custardy.
Serve in bowls and top with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, nuts, or honey.
Notes
For a vegan version, replace the egg with a flax or chia egg.
Add nut butter for extra creaminess or fresh berries for a fruity boost.
Feel free to top with chocolate chips or a sprinkle of nutmeg for a fun twist.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat as needed.
