Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup almond milk (or other milk of choice)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
- 0.25 cup fresh blueberries (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons granola (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Peel the ripe banana and slice it into small pieces. Set aside a few slices for topping, if desired.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Stir occasionally and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the oats are soft and the mixture has thickened.
While the oats are cooking, in a blender or food processor, blend the frozen blueberries and sliced banana until smooth. Add a splash of almond milk if needed to help the blending process.
Once the oats are cooked, stir in the chia seeds for added texture and nutrition.
Pour the blueberry-banana mixture over the cooked oats and gently swirl to combine. Sweeten with honey or maple syrup if preferred.
Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. Top with fresh blueberries, reserved banana slices, granola, and a dollop of peanut butter.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious Blue Nana Breakfast!
