Banana Cream Pie Oatmeal is a delicious and nutritious breakfast option that combines the creamy goodness of banana cream pie with the heartiness of oats. Perfect for busy mornings or a cozy brunch, this recipe is both satisfying and easy to prepare.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by peeling the banana. Cut half of the banana into thin slices and mash the other half using a fork in a small bowl. Set both the sliced and mashed banana aside.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the oats, milk, coconut milk, and water. Stir well to mix the liquids with the oats.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reached your desired consistency.
- Stir in the whey protein powder until well combined. Make sure there are no lumps of protein powder in the mixture.
- Add the mashed banana to the oatmeal and stir well. This will add a creamy texture and natural sweetness to the oats.
- Pour the cooked oatmeal into a serving bowl.
- Top the oatmeal with the reserved banana slices for an extra touch of banana flavor and visual appeal.
- You can add any additional toppings of your choice, such as a sprinkle of cinnamon, a drizzle of honey, or some chopped nuts, to enhance the flavors.
- Your Banana Cream Pie Oatmeal is ready to be enjoyed! Serve warm and relish the comforting, creamy goodness.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
- For a thicker consistency, reduce the water or milk slightly.
- Consider topping your oatmeal with sliced bananas, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added texture and flavor.
- If you're lactose intolerant or prefer a dairy-free option, you can substitute the milk with a plant-based alternative like almond or soy milk.
- Stir continuously to prevent the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
