Sliced bananas
Chocolate chips or chunks
Chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, or hazelnuts)
Shredded coconut
Fresh berries
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Oats
In a medium saucepan, combine the oats and milk. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Add the Chocolate and Sweetener
Once the oats start to thicken (about 3-4 minutes), stir in the cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. This will give the oats a rich, chocolatey base.
Step 3: Add the Banana and Vanilla
Mash the banana until smooth, then add it to the oats, along with the vanilla extract and cinnamon (if using). Stir to combine. The banana will add natural sweetness and creaminess, enhancing the chocolate flavor.
Step 4: Cook to Desired Consistency
Continue to cook the oats, stirring occasionally, until they reach your desired consistency. If you prefer creamier oats, add a little extra milk.
Step 5: Serve and Garnish
Spoon the chocolate banana oatmeal into bowls and top with sliced bananas, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or any toppings you like. A sprinkle of shredded coconut or fresh berries also pairs beautifully.
Enjoy!
This Chocolate Banana Oatmeal Dessert is best enjoyed warm, with melty chocolate bits and a comforting, creamy texture. Perfect for any time you’re craving a dessert that’s nourishing and satisfying.
