Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chia seeds, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until well combined. Cover and refrigerate overnight for at least 6 hours.
  2. The next morning, heat a skillet over medium heat and add maple syrup. Once bubbling, place sliced bananas in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Carefully flip the bananas and cook for an additional 2 minutes until caramelized and tender.
  4. Take the chilled oats from the refrigerator, stir gently, and add almond milk if too thick.
  5. Spoon the creamy oats into bowls and top with warm caramelized bananas. Drizzle remaining syrup over the top.

Notes

For best results, use firm bananas and ensure oats are refrigerated for at least 6 hours. Feel free to adjust sweetness and add creative toppings.
