Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup steel-cut oats (or rolled oats; reduce cooking time by 5 minutes)
  • 2 cups almond milk
  • ½ overripe banana, mashed
  • ½ tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ tablespoon peanut butter
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Cook the Oats:
    Add steel-cut oats and almond milk to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
    Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • Thicken the Mixture:
    Once the oatmeal has thickened, turn off the heat. Note that it will continue to thicken as it sits.
  • Add the Flavor:
    Stir in the mashed banana, coconut oil, maple syrup, peanut butter, and salt. Use a fork to whisk everything together, breaking up any chunks of banana for a smooth consistency.
  • Serve:
    Add your favorite toppings (such as sliced fruit, nuts, seeds, or additional peanut butter) and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a sweeter option, add a drizzle of honey or an extra tablespoon of maple syrup.
  • Oatmeal can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container. Reheat with a splash of almond milk for desired consistency.
  • Toppings like granola, chia seeds, or berries elevate both flavor and texture.
