Instructions:

- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the oatmeal has absorbed most of the water and reached your desired consistency.

- While the oatmeal is cooking, peel the banana.

- Pour the peanut butter oatmeal into bowls.
- Top each serving with the sliced banana.
- Enjoy your delicious and nutritious peanut butter banana oatmeal while it’s warm.
Tips:
- Ensure the oatmeal is fully cooked and has a creamy consistency before adding the peanut butter and bananas for the best texture and flavor.
- For added flavor, consider topping your oatmeal with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey.
- You can customize this recipe by adding other fruits, like berries or apple slices, for extra nutrition and variety.
- If you like your oatmeal thicker, reduce the amount of water slightly. For a thinner consistency, add a little more milk.
- To save time in the morning, you can prepare your oatmeal the night before and just reheat it in the microwave or on the stove.
