Helpful Tips

• For this recipe, I made my favorite vegan whipped cream recipe and homemade granola. Feel free to buy these items at the store to save time.

• Customize this recipe by adding extra bananas, shredded coconut or vanilla wafer cookies.

• To make these oats dairy free, omit the yogurt or use Silk yogurt instead.

• I prefer rolled oats, but quick oats may be used as well for a softer consistency. Avoid using steel-cut oats; they will remain firm and chewy without cooking.
