Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a small baking dish with the melted coconut oil to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Custard Mixture:
- In a medium bowl, mash the banana until smooth.
- Add almond milk, almond butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk all the ingredients together until well combined and smooth.
3. Combine Bread and Oatmeal:
- Add the cubed whole-wheat bread and multi-grain oatmeal into the banana mixture.
- Gently toss to make sure all the bread cubes and oatmeal are well-coated with the custard mixture.
4. Allow Absorption:
- Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the bread and oatmeal to absorb the liquid, ensuring a creamy texture.
5. Transfer to Baking Dish:
- Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
6. Bake:
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crisp, and the custard is set.
7. Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Optionally, you can drizzle additional maple syrup, sprinkle some more cinnamon, or add a dollop of almond butter on top for extra flavor.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious baked banana oat French toast!

Tips:

- For an extra crunchy texture, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts on top before baking.

- If you prefer a sweeter dish, add a little more maple syrup or a sprinkle of brown sugar.

- To make the recipe vegan, ensure your bread is egg-free and use a plant-based maple syrup alternative.

- Serve with fresh fruits like berries or a side of Greek yogurt for added protein.

- Make sure to soak the bread thoroughly in the mixture to ensure it absorbs all the flavors.

Your Baked Banana Oat French Toast with Almond Butter and Coconut Oil is now ready to enjoy. The combination of hearty whole-wheat bread, nutritious multi-grain oatmeal, and a subtle blend of cinnamon and vanilla makes for an irresistible dish.
