Why I Love Oats
What a fantastic grain oats are. They have a good supply of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and even antioxidants, and they are naturally gluten-free. Studies have demonstrated the potential benefits of oats in reducing cholesterol, managing blood sugar levels, addressing skin issues, and promoting weight loss. In essence, they are a “super grain.” Additionally, oats can be used in a plethora of ways, including muffins, energy balls, oats, and other baked goods.
Ingredients needed Banana Bread with oats
List of some crucial ingredients here we needed:
- rolled oats: For this particular recipe, old-fashioned rolled oats work best. When necessary, make sure to grab gluten-free oats. I use rolled oats without gluten from Bob’s Red Mill. Try my steel-cut oats recipe if you have steel-cut oats.
- water or dairy-free milk: I usually make my oatmeal with water because I think it’s still creamy enough, but you can use dairy-free milk to get more flavor or creaminess. Almond milk without sweetness is my go-to.
- Cinnamon: The ideal combination of spices for banana bread.
- Vanilla: an enhancer of flavor.
- sea salt: unifies the tastes altogether.
- Banana: Half of the banana should be cooked in the oats before the remaining half is caramelized and used as a topping.
- chopped walnuts: We are toasting these and topping them with the banana slices. I adore the way walnuts add flavor, texture, and extra healthy fats. You are welcome to omit or substitute another kind of nut.
- coconut oil: to cook the banana slices for the garnish. very tasty!
- maple syrup: I suggest serving the banana with an additional drizzle after you’ve sautéed it in a little maple syrup.
How to make this recipe
Prepare oats
This is a very easy recipe to make, just like most stovetop oatmeal recipes! In a medium-sized pot, combine the oats, cinnamon, vanilla, sea salt, and half of the banana slices. Stir in nondairy milk or water to mix well. For 8 to 10 minutes, cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to ensure the banana slices melt into the oats and don’t burn. When the oatmeal is thick and fluffy and all of the liquid has been absorbed, you will know it’s finished.
Caramelize bananas and toast walnuts
As the oats are cooking, warm up some coconut oil and maple syrup in a skillet over medium heat. To the skillet, add the remaining banana slices and walnuts. Fry the banana slices for 2 minutes on each side, or until a golden crust forms. Toast the walnuts briefly before taking them off the stove.
Serve
Transfer cooked oats to a bowl and sprinkle walnuts and caramelized bananas on top. Drizzle with extra maple syrup for sweeter oats.
Store and Reheat Banana Bread with oats
To Store
After the bread cools completely, put it in a paper towel-lined, airtight storage container. Place an additional paper towel on top of the bread. Close and store at room temperature for a maximum of seven days.
To Freeze
The oats banana bread slices can be frozen for up to three months if they are stored in an airtight freezer-safe container. For a tasty treat, I like to freeze this bread in individual slices and thaw them as needed.
To Reheat from Frozen
Place the bread in the refrigerator to thaw overnight. Use a microwave to gently reheat until thoroughly heated.
