Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate chips
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 whole Banana (optional, for topping)
- 1 tablespoon Crushed peanuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, and water over medium heat. Stir occasionally and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Once simmering, add cocoa powder, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Reduce heat to low and allow the oats to cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes or until thick and creamy.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of peanut butter until fully combined, ensuring the flavor is evenly distributed.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of peanut butter over the top of each serving.
Sprinkle dark chocolate chips over the oatmeal while it’s still warm, allowing them to melt slightly.
If desired, top with sliced banana and a sprinkle of crushed peanuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your indulgent yet wholesome Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Oatmeal!
