Introduction

A great healthy oatmeal! A great healthy oatmeal!
Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    1 cup milk of choice, or water (nutritional info calculated using soy)
    1/4 cup quick-cooking steel-cut oats
    1 banana, mashed thoroughly
    1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    2 tbsp cocoa powder
    pinch of salt


Directions

Bring milk (I use 1/2 c almond milk and 1/2 c water) to a boil, add oats, and reduce heat to medium. (If you'd like to add flax or chia seeds, do so now.)
Add mashed banana and stir into the cooking oats.
Once more of the liquid has absorbed, add vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir.
If you'd like to add any extra ingredients (coconut oil, almond or peppermint extract, dried fruit, nuts, sunflower seeds), do so now.
When you're pleased with the consistency of the oatmeal, transfer to a bowl. Add a splash of your milk of choice and any other additional toppings (chocolate chips, shredded coconut, nuts, etc.).

*You could also use regular steel-cut oats and increase your cooking time to 15-25 minutes. To replace the banana, use either 1-3 finely chopped dates or 2-3 tsps of liquid sweetener (maple syrup, agave, or honey).
