👨🍳 How to Make It (Step-by-step)
Step 1: Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) while you prepare the batter.
💡Tip: Use the convection setting if available — it gives a beautiful golden top!
Step 2: Blend the wet ingredients
In a blender or food processor, combine banana, eggs, Greek yogurt, and milk.
💡Choose a ripe banana — it boosts natural sweetness!
Step 3: Add the dry ingredients
Add oats, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and baking powder. Blend until just combined.
💡Don’t overmix — keep the texture slightly rustic.
Step 4: Prepare your baking dish
Grease or line a small rectangular or square dish.
💡Silicone molds work great and need no greasing.
Step 5: Pour the batter
Transfer the mixture to the dish and level it out.
💡Tap the pan gently to release any air bubbles.
Step 6: Add toppings
Sprinkle sliced almonds and dried cranberries on top.
💡Or try chopped walnuts, raisins, or dark chocolate chips for variety!
Step 7: Bake to perfection
Bake for 35 minutes, or until golden and set in the center.
💡Insert a toothpick — it should come out clean.
Step 8: Cool it down
Let the cake rest for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
💡It firms up as it cools — don’t rush!
Step 9: Slice and serve
Cut into bars or squares and serve warm.
💡Top with a dollop of yogurt or a drizzle of honey if desired.
Step 10: Store for later
Leftovers? Store in the fridge and reheat as needed.
💡It’s even better the next day — the flavours deepen overnight.
