Indulge in a quick and easy single-serve dessert with this Banana Oatmeal Mug Dessert. Made with wholesome ingredients and ready in minutes, it’s a satisfying treat for any time of day.


Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/4 cup quick oats
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter or almond butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe mug, mash the banana until smooth. Add the oats, maple syrup, peanut butter, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, milk, and vanilla extract.
  2. Stir well until fully combined. If desired, fold in chocolate chips or nuts.
  3. Microwave on high for 1 to 1 ½ minutes, or until the mixture is set and puffed up.
  4. Let cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy warm straight from the mug.

Notes

  • Use a very ripe banana for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • This dessert can be made dairy-free by using plant-based milk and chocolate chips.
  • Add a scoop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of extra nut butter on top for a more filling treat.
