Recipe Q&A

Can I use a plant-based milk alternative?

Yes, plant-based milks like almond, oat, or soy milk work well and maintain creaminess.

How do I make this dish vegan-friendly?

Replace eggs with a flax egg and use plant-based milk and butter substitutes for a vegan variation.

What nuts are recommended as toppings?

Chopped walnuts or pecans add a pleasant crunch and complement the banana's sweetness.

Can I prepare the mixture ahead of time?

You can mix ingredients the night before and bake fresh in the morning for convenience.

What is the best way to tell when it’s done baking?

The tops should be lightly golden and the oats set without being overly dry.
