Ingredient tips and substitutions

Milk: Any type of milk, from skim milk to whole milk, will work. Plant-based milks, like almond milk, can also be used.
Brown sugar: I use light brown sugar. Feel free to use more or less depending on how sweet you’d like the oats to be.
Bananas: Blended baked oats are a great alternative to banana bread for using up ripe bananas. It’s important to use ripe or overripe bananas because they give the oats more flavor and sweetness.
Vanilla extract: You can use less if you prefer.
Chocolate chips: I like to use mini chocolate chips because they give little bites of chocolate throughout the oats. Regular chocolate chips will also work.
