Step 1
In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast the 1/4 cup coconut flakes, stirring often, until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
Step 2
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup oats, 2 cups milk, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until creamy and thickened, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Slice the banana into rounds. Stir half the banana slices and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon into the oatmeal, cooking 1 minute more until warmed through.
Step 4
Divide the oatmeal between two bowls. Top with the remaining banana slices, the toasted coconut, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Serve warm.
