Introduction

A totally yummy breakfast casserole that you can make ahead and reheat for weekday mornings! A great way (like any banana bread recipe) to use up those mushy bananas!

This is an incredible breakfast dish with staying power. Good amount of complex carbs, lots of protein and high in potassium. You won't be craving lunch for a long time!

Ingredients

    1 cup steel cut oats
    3.5 cups water
    2 medium over-ripe bananas
    4 eggs
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    2 tsp cinnamon
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 tsp half salt

Tips

You can make this dish lighter by exchanging the nuts for raisins, using half egg whites or egg beaters instead of whole eggs, or substituting or cutting back on the brown sugar. I like the real deal because it's sinful tasting and already isn't a huge hit to the calorie bank first thing in the morning.


Directions

Bring water to a boil in a medium sauce pan. Add oatmeal and simmer 20 minutes until water is evaporated and oatmeal is thick.

Meanwhile - mash bananas (it's ok to leave lumps if you like them!) with sugar, cinnamon, vanilla & salt in a small bowl. Beat in the eggs and add walnuts.

Once oatmeal is cooked, remove from heat for 5 minutes to thicken & cool slightly. Slowly add banana & egg mix while stirring so that your eggs don't cook when they hit the hot oatmeal.

Pour mix into a small, greased baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until eggs are set.

Enjoy!

    I had to substitute apple sauce for one of the bananas and sliced almonds for walnuts. Added dried cherries. Turned out well. I don't even need the full serving size for breakfast. - 2/7/17
