Notes

Alternatives:

blueberries - raspberries, cranberries, cherries

maple syrup - honey, agave

Porridge oats must be regular - jumbo oats will not absorb enough liquid and can lead to a soggy result.

An average (unpeeled) banana weighs about 100g.

Would be useful to split out the ingredients into sections. I added all the nut butter but a quarter was for the topping. As the recipe was a simple "add it all together" I was not looking at the method just using the ingredients list

Delicious and easy to make, a family favourite without being too sweet

Are these fresh berries or can one mix fresh and dried or even just use dried if fresh not available!

The 3 months ago

These were really nice , Though it says they ate not freezer friendly, I‘m giving it a try.

Nice, a bit wet but I think that’s because I had “flapjack” in my mind rather than baked oats. Great for breakfast with big dollop of yog. Will add seeds next time. Used a tahini drizzle 😋

Would be useful to have a cue as to how thick the batter should be. Maybe also a weight for the mashed bananas rather than just a number of bananas

very tasty, feels indulgent. i did cook for 5 mins longer, just different ovens i’m guessing, let it sit in oven for 10 mins the let go cold. still a little bit soft, my bananas may have been too big, would be helpful to have an approximate weight on the recipe for the bananas
