Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 1 large ripe banana
- 0.5 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the old-fashioned rolled oats and a pinch of salt to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the water.
Step 3
While the oats cook, peel and mash the ripe banana with a fork until mostly smooth. Set aside.
Step 4
Once the oats are cooked, stir in the mashed banana, 0.5 cup of milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine and allow the mixture to heat through for another 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the honey or maple syrup to sweeten the oatmeal to your liking.
Step 6
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Top each with 1 tablespoon of chopped walnuts for added crunch and flavor.
Step 7
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty and comforting Nana Nut Oatmeal!
