Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 medium Banana, mashed
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (optional topping)
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats, almond milk, mashed banana, chia seeds, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, ensuring to stir continually to prevent sticking and to allow the banana to integrate smoothly, creating a creamy texture.
Continue cooking for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oats have absorbed most of the almond milk and reached a creamy consistency.
Remove from heat and taste. If desired, sweeten with honey or maple syrup.
Serve the oats hot, topped with fresh berries.
Enjoy your low-fat creamy morning oats as a nutritious way to start your day.
