Original Recipe

By James Bellows

2 cups Plain Oatmeal
3 cups Water
2/3 cups Brown Sugar
2/3 cups Maple Syrup
two Sliced Bananas

Add Oatmeal, brown sugar and maple syrup to the water and bring to a boil. When it is boiling turn it down to a simmer and slice the bananas into it. Cook until bananas “dissolve” and the texture is creamy and somewhat thick.

Serves 4

I am not usually an oatmeal fan, but this is absolutely delicious. It has a taste similar to banana bread. It comes out really sweet, so you can experiment with the amount of sugar and syrup for your own tastes, but be sure to compensate less syrup with a little more liquid of another kind for the texture.
