Step 1
Start by pouring the cashew milk into a saucepan and heating it over medium-high until it just begins to boil. Once it’s bubbling, stir in the oats and turn the heat down to low so it simmers gently. Mix in the cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, and cinnamon, making sure everything is well combined. Add a drizzle of maple syrup to sweeten things up, then let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the oats are starting to thicken, toss in the chocolate chips and keep cooking for another minute or two until it reaches the texture you like. Scoop the oatmeal into a bowl and top it off with sliced bananas. Enjoy!

How to serve
Top with a handful of chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch and protein. A drizzle of almond butter or a sprinkle of cinnamon can add wonderful flavor. Serve warm for the best taste and comfort.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of plant-based milk if needed to loosen the texture. Avoid freezing, as the bananas may become mushy.
