This could easily be called Banana Bread Oatmeal.  I only ever have whole milk in the house, which makes this almost too rich for me.  But it’s pretty amazing!  I’ve made it several times now.  I might doctor the recipe one of these days to try less liquid and a tad less maple syrup.  Not to be snobby but you should really use real maple syrup here – no Log Cabin stuff. 

Combine milk, water and salt in a medium saucepan; heat until almost boiling. Add oats and cook, stirring, until creamy, 1-2 minutes. (I’m pretty sure they mean 10 to 12 minutes!) Remove pan from heat and stir in mashed banana and 1 tbsp maple syrup. Divide between 2 bowls, sprinkle with walnuts and serve.
