Start by gathering old-fashioned rolled oats, golden flax meal, cardamom, cinnamon, salt, raisins, and chopped pecans.

Choose a brand of rolled oats, such as Bob's Redmill or sprouted rolled oats from One Dee.

In a separate bowl, prepare the wet mixture starting with plant-based milk, preferably Thai Kitchen brand for creaminess.

Blend the coconut milk in a Vitamix until smooth to avoid lumps.

Mash 2 bananas with a fork, leaving some texture.

Add vanilla extract and maple syrup to the wet mixture.

Combine enough almond milk or other milk to equal 4 cups of liquid in the wet mixture.

Mix the wet and dry ingredients together.

Grease a pan and pour the mixture into it, then cover and refrigerate overnight.

In the morning, add berries or fruit on top before baking.

Bake the oatmeal until set, then serve with additional plant-based milk and maple syrup.
