Serves 2
½ cup of wheat free oats, this is found at Woolworths in the health section ( see note below) 1 banana, mashed, you can leave some of the banana to slice as a garnish

1 T raw cacao powder
1 cup your favourite milk, almond, oat, almond, coconut, hemp, cows milk
Serve with rice malt syrup, honey or maple syrup if you like.
Method
Put everything in a pot except the syrup and simmer for 4-5 minutes until thickened, and oats are cooked. Serve with banana slices and syrup of your choice.
Note:
Do oats contain gluten?
Oats naturally contain a type of gluten called Avenin that is different to the type of gluten you find in wheat, rye, barley and triticale.
Now if you talk to the Coeliac Society of Australia, they say about 4 in 5 people with Coeliac Disease can tolerate oats. We say the easiest thing to do is read the Coeliac Society position statement on oats and seek medical advice on whether this applies to you.
If you’re lucky enough to be able to tolerate the gluten found in oats, the tricky bit is finding oats that haven’t been contaminated by wheat or other grains. Often, all the stuff is grown together at the same farm, processed by the same equipment and transported by the same trucks!
Freedom Foods Oats are tested to ensure that gluten from wheat is not detected (ie., they are non contaminated).
