Ingredients

Scale

Oatmeal Base

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups water or unsweetened almond milk

Flavorings

  • 1 banana, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup assorted nuts or seeds

Instructions

  1. Heat Liquid: Bring 2 cups of water or unsweetened almond milk to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, preparing the liquid base for the oats.

  4. Add Toppings: Divide the oatmeal evenly into two bowls and top each serving with 1/4 cup of assorted nuts or seeds, providing a crunchy finish and nutritional boost before serving.
