Lately I cannot get enough of this recipe, and I've had it for breakfast three days in a row now. Not only is it a tasty recipe, but it's healthy, filling and extremely quick and easy to make as well. So give this oatmeal a try and let me know what you think!
Cinnamon Bun Oatmeal:
Ingredients:
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup instant oats
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon 100% pure maple syrup
1 ripe banana
1. Begin by heating the water over high heat until it comes to a boil. Stir in the salt and the oats and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until most of the water has evaporated.
2. Add the cinnamon and maple syrup to the oats, and stir thoroughly to combine. Continue to cook on low heat until the oatmeal is the perfect consistency.
3. Once the oatmeal is cooked to your liking, turn the heat off and thinly slice the banana. Add the slices to the oatmeal and stir gently to combine.
4. Finally, pour the oatmeal into a serving bowl, let cool a few minutes, and enjoy with your favorite cup of tea or coffee!
Serves: 1
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Notes: as the banana gives this recipe a natural sweetness, you may not need to add a lot, if any, of the maple syrup. I just like things on the sweeter side, so that's why I add it to mine.
I also am a huge cinnamon lover and I probably add well over 1/2 a teaspoon of the spice to my oatmeal. So feel free to add more if you feel that your oatmeal needs more flavor.
