This Peanut Butter Oatmeal is the perfect balance of creamy and nutty, making for a comforting and delicious breakfast. The rich peanut butter swirled into the oats creates a smooth texture, while the optional banana slices add a touch of sweetness that complements the savory peanut butter.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups milk (or almond milk for dairy-free)
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 banana, sliced (optional topping)
- Chopped peanuts for garnish (optional)
- Ground cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
- In a medium saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add the rolled oats and a pinch of salt, stirring occasionally. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid.
- Stir in the peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Continue stirring until the peanut butter is fully melted and incorporated into the oatmeal.
- Once the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency, remove from heat and pour into a bowl.
- Top with sliced banana, chopped peanuts, and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy, nutty breakfast!
