I love having oats for breakfast as they fill me up for hours after. If I have a bowl of oats like this I typically am not hungry again til the late arvo! I created this recipe this morning and it was absolutely delicious so wanted to share it with you! Let me know if you try it!
Ingredients
Half a banana chopped into slices
1/3 cup of blackberries and blueberries (frozen or fresh)
1/2 oats (not the instant pack, make sure it is 100% rolled oats in the ingredients with no extra sugars/salts)
1 cup of almond milk/oat milk or regular milk if you prefer (you can also use water if you don’t like milk however might be less creamy)
1-2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1-2 tablespoon crushed walnuts
1 tablespoon crushed peanuts
1 drizzle maple syrup / honey
2 teaspoon coconut sugar/brown sugar
1 big tablespoon organic unsalted peanut butter
Method
Place banana and coconut sugar in a small pot over low-medium heat. Once the banana is caramelised remove from heat and set aside - usually around 5-7 minutes max (make sure you keep stirring to make sure it doesn’t burn but don’t stir to hard otherwise the banana will become to mushy)
In the same pot add oats, your liquid of choice, chia seeds, nuts, cinnamon and any other dry ingredients here
Stir until the oats begin to bubble and all the ingredients come together to form a thick consistency. It shouldn’t be liquid-y anymore but it should still be moist and not dry
Put into plate of your choice and drizzle with honey/maple syrup
Top with fresh or frozen berries and caramelised banana
Enjoy with a side of coffee or tea in bed or in the sunshine :)
