Ingredients:

1 cup oats
80g
1/4 cup raisins
36g
1 banana
140g
1/2 cup milk (2% fat)
120g
1/4 cup almonds
24g
1 tbsp brown sugar
9g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Banana: Peel the banana and slice it into thin rounds. Set aside a few slices for topping if desired.
- Almonds: Roughly chop the almonds. You may toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes for extra flavor, if desired.
2. Cook Oats:
- In a medium saucepan, bring 1 3/4 cups water to a boil (you can adjust the amount of water based on desired oatmeal consistency).
- Add the oats and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add Raisins and Banana:
- Stir in the raisins and banana slices (excluding any reserved for topping).
4. Add Milk:
- Pour in the milk and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency and the banana has softened.
5. Sweeten:
- Stir in the brown sugar until well combined.
6. Serve:
- Remove the saucepan from heat. Ladle the oatmeal into bowls.
7. Top:
- Sprinkle the chopped almonds and any reserved banana slices on top of the oatmeal.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious and delicious breakfast!

Tips:

- Use ripe bananas for a naturally sweeter flavor without having to add extra sugar.

- If you prefer a creamier consistency, you can use whole milk or a milk alternative like almond or oat milk.

- Toasting the almonds beforehand can enhance their flavor and give your oatmeal an extra crunch.

- For a richer taste, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract or cinnamon while cooking the oats.

- If you like your oatmeal thicker, reduce the amount of milk; for a thinner consistency, add more milk or a bit of water.

This warm banana oatmeal with almonds is not just a treat for your taste buds but also a powerhouse of nutrients. It's easy to put together and offers a perfect balance of flavors and textures. Whether you're rushing through a busy morning or enjoying a lazy weekend, this oatmeal is sure to give you the energy you need to power through your day.
