Banana oatmeal

An easy twist on your basic oatmeal that's both tasty and healthy.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 cup old fashioned oats (rolled oats)
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon ((optional))
• 1 banana
• optional - a few nuts eg candied pecans and/or slices of banana and maple syrup to serve

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Place the oats, milk and cinnamon (if using) in a small pan. Press the oats down a little so it they are covered by the milk. Warm over a medium heat, stirring a couple times as it cooks - you want the milk warmed through to a simmer but not a strong boil. The milk should reduce down to look less liquidy.
2. 2While it's warming, mash the banana. Once cooked, mix the oatmeal and mashed banana together and serve warm with your choice of toppings.
