Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Creamy natural peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 medium Sliced bananas
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, water, and unsweetened almond milk.
Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once boiling, reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oatmeal begins to thicken to your desired consistency.
Stir in the creamy natural peanut butter, maple syrup, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the peanut butter is fully incorporated, and the oatmeal is creamy.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the oatmeal sit for a minute to thicken slightly.
Divide the creamy peanut butter oatmeal into two bowls and top each with sliced bananas.
For extra texture and flavor, garnish with chopped nuts and sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious gluten-free breakfast.
