healthy dessert with Oatmeal, Cocoa, and Banana

Step 1: Preparing the Dough

Soaking the Oatmeal: In a large bowl, combine 120 g of oatmeal with 250 ml of hot milk. Stir well and let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the oats to soften.

Mashing the Bananas: Peel the bananas and mash them with a fork until smooth. For a smoother texture, you can use a blender.

Mixing Wet Ingredients: Add the mashed bananas to the soaked oats and mix well. Stir in the beaten eggs until fully incorporated.

Combining Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix 45 g of cocoa powder with 1 tsp of baking powder. Gradually add the dry mixture to the banana-oat mixture, stirring until well combined.

Step 2: Baking the Dessert

Preparing the Baking Form: Line a baking form with baking paper and grease it lightly with a bit of oil.

Filling the Form: Pour the prepared dough into the lined baking form, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the surface with 45 g of chopped walnuts.

Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the baking form in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.Tip: Baking time may vary depending on your oven. Check for doneness by inserting a skewer into the center. If it comes out clean, the dessert is ready. If there is still dough on the skewer, bake for a few more minutes.

Step 3: Adding the Glaze

Melting the Chocolate: In a bowl, combine 75 g of broken dark chocolate pieces with 1 tbsp of oil. Melt the mixture in a water bath or microwave. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
