Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small pot or microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup of multi-grain oatmeal with 1/2 cup of water.
- If using a stove, cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the water is absorbed and the oats are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- If using a microwave, heat on high for 2-3 minutes, stopping to stir halfway through the cooking time. Add more water if necessary to reach your preferred consistency.
- While the oatmeal is cooking, peel and slice 1/2 of a banana into thin rounds.
- Once the oatmeal is cooked, remove it from the heat or microwave.
- Stir in 1.25 tablespoons of peanut butter until well combined and creamy.
- Gently fold in the banana slices or arrange them on top of the oatmeal.
- Serve the oatmeal immediately. Optionally, drizzle with a bit of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness, or sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon if desired.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for added sweetness and easier mashing.
- For a creamier texture, you can replace water with milk or a milk substitute.
- Add extra toppings like chia seeds, nuts, or a drizzle of honey for added flavor and nutrition.
- Stir the peanut butter thoroughly to ensure it’s well incorporated and gives a smooth consistency.
- Feel free to double the recipe to make a larger batch that can be stored and reheated for busy mornings.
