Start your morning with a warm and indulgent bowl of Peanut Butter Cookie Oatmeal, a creamy, protein-packed breakfast that satisfies your sweet tooth while keeping you energized. This simple yet decadent recipe combines old-fashioned rolled oats with rich peanut butter, a hint of vanilla, and a touch of honey or maple syrup for natural sweetness. Infused with a sprinkle of cinnamon for warmth and topped with optional mini chocolate chips and chopped peanuts, this oatmeal captures the essence of your favorite peanut butter cookie in a wholesome, comforting form. Ready in just 15 minutes and easily customizable with non-dairy milk and vegan-friendly ingredients, this recipe is perfect for busy mornings or a cozy weekend treat.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oatmeal thickens to your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully combined and smooth.
Divide the oatmeal between two bowls and, if desired, sprinkle mini chocolate chips and chopped peanuts on top for extra flavor and texture.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter Cookie Oatmeal!
