Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly
  • 2 bananas, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2-3 cups additional fruit (berries, peaches, plums, pears cherries, strawberries, mangoes)
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup flaked dried coconut
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine-grain salt
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 15 ounces full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375F. Use 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil to grease an 8-inch or equivalent baking dish.
  • Spread the banana slices across the bottom. Slice the remaining fruit. Scatter about 2/3 of the fruit on top of the bananas, reserving the rest for the top.
  • In a bowl, combine the oats, flaked coconut, baking powder, and salt. Sprinkle the dry mixture over the fruit in the baking dish.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, coconut milk, egg, remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, and vanilla. Drizzle the wet mixture over the oats.
  • Arrange the remaining fruit slices over the top.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes, until the top is golden and the oats are set. Let cool for a few minutes.
