Break the banana into pieces and place in a small pot with oats and milk. Bring to a simmer.
Reduce to low heat and as you stir, mash the bananas up until they're well combined. Cook until the milk is absorbed and the oats are thickening.
Add cinnamon, ginger and vanilla and cook until oatmeal is thick. Serve hot and garnish with coconut or chopped nuts.
