🛒 Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned)
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 medium ripe banana, sliced
  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1 tsp raw honey
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1 tbsp natural almond butter (optional drizzle)
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2-3 ice cubes (for chilling, if desired)
  • Fresh mint leaf for garnish (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Bring Liquid to Boil: Pour unsweetened almond milk into a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add Oats & Salt: Stir in rolled oats and sea salt. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes until oats soften and liquid is mostly absorbed.
3. Remove from Heat: Turn off burner and let oatmeal rest for 1 minute so it reaches ideal creamy consistency without being mushy.

4. Fold in Greek Yogurt: Gently fold non-fat Greek yogurt into warm oatmeal along with vanilla extract and honey. Do not overstir—preserve creaminess.
5. Transfer to Bowl: Pour oatmeal into your favorite breakfast bowl, scraping the pan to capture every creamy bite.
6. Layer Toppings: Arrange sliced banana on top, then sprinkle ground flaxseed and cinnamon evenly across the surface.
7. Optional Drizzle: Add a light drizzle of almond butter (1 tbsp) if desired for extra richness and protein boost.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy while warm to maximize creaminess and preserve the delicate texture of yogurt and banana.
