Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk (or any type of milk)
- 1 cup water
- 1 spotty ripe banana, mashed
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp salt
- Toppings of choice (fresh fruit, nut butter, nuts, seeds, etc.)
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a small pot.
- Transfer the pot to a stovetop and cook over medium-high heat. Frequently stir the oatmeal so it does not stick to the bottom of the pot. Cook until thick and creamy, about 7-8 minutes. The longer you cook, the thicker and creamier it will become.
- Transfer oatmeal to bowl(s). Add your favorite toppings, like fresh fruit, nut butter, granola, nuts, seeds, and more. Enjoy!
Notes
- How to make them gluten-free: If you follow a strict gluten-free diet, check to make sure your oats are certified gluten-free.
- Oatmeal mix-ins: Protein powder, cocoa powder, nut butter, nuts, or seeds.
- Oatmeal toppings: Fresh fruit, nut butter, granola, or dark chocolate.
- How to store leftovers: This banana oatmeal is best enjoyed immediately after making it. I do not recommend storing leftovers. However, if needed, you can store them in a sealed container inside the refrigerator.
