Instructions
- Set up station
Gather weighed ingredients, 2 small ramekins, a mixing bowl, fork, spatula, measuring spoons, and a baking tray before heating the oven. · 3 min
What to look for: All ingredients and tools are within reach.
- Heat oven
Heat the oven to 180°C / 356°F and lightly coat 2 small ramekins with the softened butter. · 5 min
What to look for: The ramekins have a thin, even butter coating.
- Mash banana
Mash the banana in the bowl until mostly smooth, leaving a few small pieces for a banana bread texture. · 3 min
What to look for: The banana looks glossy with a few soft lumps.
- Mix batter
Add the egg, water, oats, protein powder, baking powder, and salt, then stir until the mixture is thick and evenly hydrated. · 4 min
What to look for: The batter looks like a thick, spoonable porridge.
- Fill ramekins
Divide the batter between the ramekins and scatter the chopped walnut over the tops for crunch. · 3 min
What to look for: Both ramekins are filled evenly and topped with walnut.
- Bake oats
Bake on the center rack for 22 to 25 minutes until puffed, set at the edges, and lightly golden on top. · 25 min
What to look for: The tops are lightly golden and the edges no longer look wet.
- Cool briefly
Rest the ramekins for 5 minutes so the centers finish setting and the banana aroma settles into the oats. · 5 min
What to look for: The surface settles slightly but remains tender.
- Serve warm
Serve warm in the ramekins while the tops are tender and the walnut pieces still taste toasted. · 1 min
What to look for: Each portion is warm, soft, and spoonable.
