How to make it

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water or milk, mashed banana, agave or honey and a pinch of salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat while stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and let the oatmeal cook for about 5-7 minutes or until it reaches your desired consistency, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  5. Optional: Stir in a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor.
  6. Transfer the oatmeal to a serving bowl.
  7. Top the oatmeal with your favorite fresh fruits, nuts, and seeds.
