Caramelized Baked Banana Oatmeal Recipe

Baked oatmeal has been one of my favorite breakfasts and on cold mornings I can't think of anything better to make. It's hearty, filling, and packed with more richer flavors than an instant or quickly prepared bowl of oats. This version deepens the banana flavor by letting it caramelize on top and you could add any number of things to pack in even more flavor. Nuts, chocolate chips, more fruit, coconut, or nut butters would all be delicious.

My latest variation for 4 servings: I added two cut up bananas and one mashed to the milk and oat mixture. Omitted the sweetener and banana on top, and I slightly ground the flax seeds. 2 points for the flax seeds, 2 for the almond milk = 1 point Purple WW per serving, but it looks to me like I'll get 5-6 servings out of it! Very yummy!

I thought this was so good. I will definitely be making this again. I don't think my banana's caramelized, but they were good regardless. A great recipe.
