Sam's Kitchen Favorites

• For this recipe, I used these 10 ounce overnight oat jars with lids.

• I love these silicone mixing spoons. No more scraping the bowl, and the food doesn't stick to them!

• My go-to angled liquid measuring cup . After multiple runs through the dishwasher, the numbers have not worn off.

• For permanently engraved measurements, these measuring cups are fantastic!

• For a more professional yet affordable mixing bowl, these stackable bowls with measurements marks work perfectly.

Helpful Tips

• Use a ripe banana: The riper the banana, the sweeter and more flavorful your oats will be.

• Mash the bananas well: A smooth mash helps the banana flavor distribute evenly throughout the oat mixture.

• Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling! Pie filling is pre-sweetened and spiced, whereas pure canned pumpkin lets you control the sugar and flavor of your oats.

• For a stronger pumpkin flavor, add 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice.

• Don't have banana milk? Use almond milk instead. You can also add banana yogurt or banana protein powder to maintain the banana flavor.

• What type of oats are best? 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.
