Cooking Time

10 minutes

Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 150g (1 1/2 cups) rolled oats
  • 875mls (3 1/2 cups) milk
  • 3 ripe small bananas, sliced
  • 35g (1/2 cup) shredded coconut
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method

  1. Combine rolled oats, 750mls (3 cups) of the milk, bananas, coconut and salt in a medium, heavy-based saucepan and stir over high heat until boiling. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until rolled oats are tender, stirring frequently and adding the remaining 125mls (1/2 cup) milk if necessary to reach desired consistency.
