Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large ripe bananas
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish. Blend the bananas, milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Add the oats, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon; pulse, then blend briefly until the batter is uniform with small oat flecks.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared dish, spread evenly, and bake for 25 minutes until golden and set.
  4. Let cool for 5 minutes, slice into squares, and serve warm.

Notes

Letting the pan sit for a few minutes before slicing helps the squares hold together. A quick rest also gives the crumb time to finish setting so you get clean edges.
