Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk (or other non-dairy milk)
- 1 medium banana
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup fresh berries (e.g., strawberries, blueberries)
- 2 tablespoons chopped almonds (or any preferred nut)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and almond milk.
Slice the banana into thin slices and add to the saucepan with the oats.
Stir in the chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and burning.
Cook the oats until they reach your desired level of creaminess, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove from the heat and let the oats sit for a minute to thicken slightly.
Divide the oats into two bowls.
Top each serving with fresh berries and a sprinkle of chopped almonds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy vegan morning oats!
