Makes enough for two people.
This is a delicious breakfast. My husband loved it!
3/4 cup oats
1 1/2 cup water
½ tsp vanilla
2 tsp maple syrup
¼ tsp cinnamon
1 banana, thinly sliced
Granulated sugar for the top (about 1 tsp)
Preheat oven to 500 on broil mode.
In a pot, combine oats, water, vanilla, maple syrup and cinnamon. Cook for a few minutes, until liquid has evaporated and oatmeal is thoroughly cooked.
Place oatmeal in oven safe dishes (I used the same dishes that I cook French onion soup in, sort of like a ramekin dish). Put bananas on top of oatmeal, and sprinkle sugar on top of bananas.
Cook in the oven for a couple of minutes. Make sure that your rack is close to the burners up top, otherwise the sugar doesn’t caramelize as well. Watch closely, because it can burn fast!
Remove from oven, and let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.
