Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.125 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 0.5 cup fresh berries (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds or other nuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk. Stir over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer.
While the oats heat, mash the banana in a small bowl until smooth.
In another small bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten.
Once the oatmeal begins to thicken (about 5 minutes), reduce the heat to low and stir in the mashed banana, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and cayenne pepper.
Slowly drizzle the beaten egg into the oatmeal mixture while stirring continuously. Keep stirring for about 2-3 minutes to ensure the egg cooks gently and turns into a creamy custard without scrambling.
Add the vanilla extract, honey or maple syrup, and chia seeds. Stir well to combine.
Cook for an additional minute or until the oatmeal reaches your desired thickness.
Remove the saucepan from heat and divide the oatmeal custard into two serving bowls.
Top with fresh berries, sliced almonds, or any other toppings of your choice. Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy, healthy oatmeal custard!
