Method
 

  1. In a bowl or directly in your mason jar, mash half of a ripe banana until mostly smooth.
  2. Add the milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to the mashed banana. Stir well to combine.
  3. Stir in the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt. Mix thoroughly ensuring all dry ingredients are completely submerged in the liquid.
  4. Cover the jar tightly with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight (8 hours).

  6. Top with fresh banana slices, whipped cream, and graham cracker crumbs. Serve cold and enjoy!

Notes

Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Do not add crunchy toppings or fresh banana slices until immediately before eating to prevent browning and sogginess.
