Baked Banana Oatmeal
Ingredients
1/4 cup uncooked rolled oats
1-2 inches of a cinnamon stick
1 tsp. freshly ground nutmeg
2 egg whites
3 packets Splenda or other heat-stable sugar substitute
4 drops of maple flavoring
1/2 ripe banana, sliced thinly
1 cupful of banana extract
Method:
Bring 1/2 cup water to a boil in a microwave. Pour oatmeal into Very large bowl. Drip in cinnamon stick and nutmeg. Add boiling water to oatmeal and cook on HIGH about 3 minutes.
While the oatmeal cooks, empty Splenda into a very small bowl, carefully add 4 drops of maple flavoring and stir with a fork to blend. The resulting mixture should look like brown sugar. Set aside.
When the microwave stops, remove cinnamon stick. Whisk in egg white mixture and banana extract. Continue whisking about 10-15 seconds after mixture has changed consistency and has turned creamy. Transfer oatmeal to a serving-size ovenproof bowl and stir in sliced banana. Carefully distribute brown Splenda mixture over the top of the oatmeal with a fork and bake oatmeal 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove carefully will be very hot and enjoy.
Serves: 1 The Joy of Eating Cookbook.
