One of my contributors, Ginger, sent me this healthy oatmeal recipe that she swears by! What makes this oatmeal so special? By adding a little heavy cream and the bananas to the cooking process you are creating the most incredibly creamy oatmeal you have ever had. Oatmeal need no longer be a breakfast that is overly sugary, or hard and dry. This will be one the kids ask for! (She said that her kids inhale this stuff!)

Oatmeal Ingredients:

1 ¾ cup boiling water
1 cup old fashioned oats
pinch of salt
1.5 tbsp chia seeds
2 - 3 tbsp heavy cream
3 tbsp pure maple syrup (plus more to taste)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
3 tbsp coconut
2 bananas, sliced
a handful of blueberries
¼ cup sliced almonds

Directions:

  1. In a medium saucepan bring 1 ¾ cups of water to a boil then add in oatmeal, and reduce heat to medium low. Add your chia seeds, being sure to stir so they don't stick together.
  2. Let cook about 5 minutes until water is absorbed and oats are tender.
  3. Add in the rest of your ingredients except almonds to heat through. At this point you can taste and see if it is sweet enough for you, if not add a little more maple syrup. Garnish with almonds and enjoy
