1/2 cup rolled oats or 1/3 cup Coach's Oats basically one serving of oats (gluten-free, if needed)
1 cup water
1/2 banana mashed
1 tablespoon Chia seeds
2 packets stevia use whatever preferred sweetener you like
Favorite toppings- peanut butter almond butter, granola, dried fruit, fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, Greek yogurt, honey, shredded coconut, splash of almond milk, muffin crumbles- whatever your little oatmeal-loving heart desires

Bring 1 cup water to boil in a small-medium pot. Once water is boiling; add in oats and turn heat down to simmer.
Set your timer for 10 minutes for rolled oats and 5 minutes for Coach's Oats.
Halfway through the cooking process (when timer reads 5 minutes for rolled oats and about 3 minutes for Coach's Oats) add in your mashed banana, sweetener of choice and Chia seeds.
Vigorously whip these ingredients into the oats with a fork. As you whip the oats, you'll notice that the oats will get fluffy and the banana will pretty much dissolve into the oats. You don't have to whip the entire rest of the cooking time, just about a minute.
Once your timer has went off; pour oats into a bowl and enjoy with your favorite toppings. I personally love TJ's crunchy peanut butter, fresh blueberries (or other fresh fruit) and a sprinkle of granola for a little added crunch.
You can thank me later!

This method can be used to make regular steel cut oats, the cooking process will just be longer. Follow the same basic instructions, though.
