A quick, comforting breakfast that fills you up in minutes and still tastes like a treat. You simmer creamy oatmeal in milk until soft, sweeten it with ripe banana, and finish it with a warm hint of ground cinnamon. It keeps you going until lunch and adapts to whatever you have on hand, from a drizzle of maple syrup to a handful of nuts or a spoon of seeds on top.

Step by step process

Preparation

1
Measure out the oats and milk - these are the two ingredients that make oatmeal banana cinnamon so easy and satisfying. Peel the banana and slice it. Set half aside for the porridge and keep the rest for topping when you serve.
2
Get the butter, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon ready too. Having everything within reach lets you season and adjust the porridge to your taste as it cooks.

Cooking

3
In a saucepan, bring the milk and a pinch of salt to a boil over medium heat. Once it starts to bubble, add the oats, lower the heat, and stir constantly with a whisk or spoon so they do not stick.
4
Cook on a gentle simmer for about 5-7 minutes, until the porridge thickens to the consistency you like. Near the end, stir in the butter, the banana pieces, and season with ground cinnamon for warmth and fragrance.

Serving

5
Spoon the creamy oatmeal into bowls. Arrange the remaining banana slices on top and drizzle with maple syrup to taste.
6
Serve straight away while it is still hot. Add a little extra syrup or a pinch of cinnamon if you like, and scatter nuts or seeds on top for crunch and variety.
