Banana oatmeal breakfast bowl

Start your day with a nutritious and delicious Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Bowl! This wholesome breakfast option combines multi-grain oatmeal, creamy milk, and a ripe banana, offering you a balanced mix of carbohydrates, protein, and essential vitamins. Whether you're rushing to work or enjoying a leisurely morning, this quick and easy recipe will keep you fueled and satisfied.

Ingredients:

1 cup milk (2% fat)
240g
1 cup multi-grain oatmeal
80g
1 banana
120g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients. Measure out 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of multi-grain oatmeal, and slice the banana into thin rounds.
2. Heat the Milk: Pour the 1 cup of milk into a medium-sized saucepan. Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat and bring the milk to a gentle simmer.
3. Add Oatmeal: Once the milk is simmering, reduce the heat to low. Gradually stir in the 1 cup of multi-grain oatmeal.
4. Cook Oatmeal: Cook the oatmeal in the milk, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 5-7 minutes or until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency.
5. Add Banana: Just before the oatmeal is fully cooked, gently fold in the banana slices, reserving a few slices for topping if desired. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the banana slices to soften slightly.
6. Serve: Remove the oatmeal from the heat and divide it into serving bowls.
7. Garnish and Enjoy: If you reserved some banana slices, place them on top of the oatmeal for a decorative touch. You can also add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of nuts if you want extra flavor and texture.
8. Optional Additions: For additional nutrition and flavor, consider adding a handful of berries, a spoonful of nut butter, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Tips:

- For a vegan option, substitute cow's milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other plant-based milk.

- Add a pinch of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.

- Top your oatmeal with nuts, seeds, or berries to increase the nutritional value.

- Prepare the oatmeal the night before and store it in the fridge for a quick grab-and-go breakfast.

- Use a non-stick pot to avoid the oatmeal sticking to the bottom while cooking.

With just a few simple ingredients and minimal cooking time, the Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Bowl is a perfect way to start your day on a healthy and delicious note. Customize it with your favorite toppings and enjoy a hearty breakfast that provides lasting energy. Give this recipe a try, and make it a staple in your morning routine!
