Ingredients
  

2 cups rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon salt

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup crushed pineapple, drained

½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (optional, depending on sweetness preference)

Fresh pineapple chunks and toasted coconut flakes for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine mashed bananas, almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using). Whisk until well blended.

        Combine Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the crushed pineapple and walnuts or pecans if you're using them.

          Transfer to Dish: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

            Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

              Cool and Serve: Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for a few minutes. For serving, cut into squares and garnish with fresh pineapple chunks and toasted coconut flakes if desired.

                Enjoy: Serve warm or at room temperature. This oatmeal can also be enjoyed with additional almond milk poured over the top or a dollop of yogurt.
