  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) maple syrup

  3. Stir in rolled oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until the oats are fully coated in the liquid.
  4. Fold in chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture, if desired.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a jar or container and seal tightly with a lid.

Notes

[‘Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.’, ‘Adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup if needed.’, ‘Customize the texture by adjusting the amount of milk.’, ‘Double or triple the recipe for meal prep; oats stay fresh in the fridge for up to 5 days.’, ‘Experiment with toppings and mix-ins for variety.’]
