Banana porridge
Background
This vegan banana porridge is ready within 15 minutes. You can use gluten-free porridge oats and serve it with other toppings if preferred (for example walnuts, pecans, dried fruits, yogurt etc.) You can use normal milk for a vegetarian version or other type of plant-based milk if preferred (oat, soy, hazelnut & coconut would work well).
