This is a little bit different way to have your morning oatmeal… takes more time, but I think it’s definitely worth it!
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/8 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil-divided
- 1/4 cup boiling water
For Topping:
- maple syrup
- bananas, cooked in coconut oil
Chop oats into a course meal in blender or food processor. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add baking soda.
Melt (if needed) 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and pour into the oatmeal; mix well. Slowly pour in the boiling water stirring constantly and scraping the sides of the bowl until a sticky batter develops. Let rest 3 minutes.
Meanwhile heat remaining oil in skillet. Drop 6 spoonfuls of batter into pan. Pat down until 1/4 inch thick and cook over low medium heat until crisp & golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Turn cakes over and repeat.
Cakes can be topped with maple syrup alone, BUT I like to thickly slice bananas and fry them in coconut oil over low heat then top the oat cakes with the bananas and some maple syrup.YUM.
