Banana Raspberry Oatmeal

 

Ingredients:

- 1 cup rolled oats

- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)

- 1 ripe banana, mashed (plus extra slices for topping)

- 1 tablespoon chia seeds

- ½ teaspoon cinnamon

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (optional, for

sweetness)

Toppings:

- Fresh raspberries

- Sliced banana

- Raw or roasted almonds

- Dried cranberries

- 2 tablespoons hummus or peanut butter (center

topping)

- Sprinkle of toasted quinoa or chia seeds

- Drizzle of honey or maple syrup

Directions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine oats, almond milk,

mashed banana, chia seeds, cinnamon, and vanilla.

2. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce to

low and simmer for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until

the oats are tender and creamy. Add sweetener if desired.

3. Pour the cooked oatmeal into a bowl and let it rest for

a minute.

4. Arrange the toppings: neatly place the sliced banana

on one side, raspberries beside them, then almonds and

cranberries. Spoon the hummus or nut butter in the

center.

5. Sprinkle with toasted quinoa or chia seeds and drizzle

lightly with honey or maple syrup for a naturally sweet

finish.

6. Serve immediately warm for a cozy breakfast or chill

slightly for a refreshing twist.
