Ingredients
- 2 medium-ripe bananas (mashed; about 200 g)
- 2 ½ cups milk (approx. 600ml; I use soy milk, but any milk works.)
- 6 ounces espresso (or 2 tbsp instant coffee mixed with ½ cup + 2 tbsp hot water)
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons smooth nut butter (about 50g; cashew or almond butter)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice; approx. 15ml)
- 2 ½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats (about 215 g)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (optional; about 25–30g. Or sub for extra rolled oats)
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅛ teaspoon table salt
- 3 cups plain yogurt (about 690 g; I use soy or coconut yogurt, but any thick Greek-style yogurt works.)
- 2 tablespoons smooth nut butter (about 30g; cashew or almond butter)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (optional but recommended for 'mousse' consistency. Approx. 25–30g)
- maple syrup to taste (optional)
- pinch table salt
- unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
Baked Oats:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Lightly grease an 8 × 8 in or 9 × 9 in square baking dish (approx. 20 × 20 cm or 23 × 23 cm) with medium-high sides.- In a medium bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
- Add the milk, espresso (or strong coffee), maple syrup, smooth nut butter, vanilla, and apple cider vinega
- In a large bowl, stir together the old-fashioned rolled oats, unsweetened cocoa powder, protein powder (if using), baking powder, baking soda, and table salt
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir well until combined.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth the surface.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
- Leave the oats in the dish to cool completely.
Yogurt Layer:
In a medium bowl, add the smooth nut butter. Warm it in the microwave for 10 seconds to soften, then mix in the vanilla extract to loosen it.- Add 1–2 tablespoons of the yogurt and stir until smooth.
- Add the remaining yogurt, salt and optional protein powder. Mix until fully combined. Note - the protein powder is what gives the yogurt a 'mousse' consistency - see notes.
- Taste test - add a dash of maple syrup if you want extra sweetness.
To Finish:
Once the baked oats are completely cool, spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the top.- Dust with cocoa powder just before serving.
