Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats*
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk (I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk or cashew milk)**
  • 1 small banana
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or other sugar or sweetener (I use 1 packet of stevia)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/4 cup fresh blueberries***
  • Optional toppings: mini chocolate chips, additional berries, chopped nuts, almond or peanut butter, shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Add oats, water, milk, and 1/2 the banana thinly sliced into a saucepan then turn heat to medium.
  • Cook until oats begin to bubble then stir until oats are cooked and creamy, about 3 minutes. 
  • Remove pan from heat and stir in brown sugar and vanilla. Pour into a bowl and top with remaining 1/2 sliced banana, blueberries, and any other favorite toppings.

Notes

*certified gluten-free as needed
**For vegan/non-dairy, be sure to use a nondairy milk or additional water
***Any berry will work and strawberries would be a great option too
