Peanut Butter and Banana Oats

Ingredients

~1/2 cup rolled oats (wholegrain, steel cut, or rolled oats are the highest in fibre)

1 cup of calcium fortified milk

Pinch of cinnamon

1/4 tsp vanilla essence (optional)

1/2 sliced banana

1Tbsp nut butter

Drizzle of maple syrup

Seed sprinkle: I make a big batch and leave in a jar to sprinkle on porridge each morning

Chopped almonds

Coconut flakes

Chia seeds

Sunflower seeds

Method

  1. The key to creamy oats is to cook slowly on a low heat on the stove top, stirring often. Or for ~1 min 30 in the microwave.

  2. Top with banana, peanut butter, and the seed sprinkle.

For overnight oats, add the oats, milk, cinnamon, vanilla essence, and a handful of frozen raspberries to a bowl and soak overnight. Add toppings in the morning before eating.
