Creamy Coconut Banana Oatmeal

A cozy, naturally sweet breakfast that comes together in minutes—kid-approved and great for busy mornings. Serves 2–3.

Ingredients:

2 cups rolled oats

1 ripe banana, mashed

¼ cup chia seeds (or slightly less)

1 small carton (approx. 200ml) full-fat coconut milk

About 4 cups water (enough to cover oats plus extra to absorb)

2–3 tbsp grated coconut

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the oats, mashed banana, chia seeds, and coconut milk.
Add enough water to cover the ingredients, with about half the height of the oats again as extra liquid (approx. 4 cups).
Stir well to combine everything evenly.
Sprinkle grated coconut on top.
Microwave on high (800W) for 3 minutes.
Let sit for 1–2 minutes to thicken and cool slightly before serving.

Notes:

Keeps well in the fridge—can be reheated with a splash of water.
