Easy Peanut Butter Porridge (+ Add-Ins)
Description
The recipe starts by cooking oats gently in plant-based milk over medium-low heat, allowing the grains to absorb the liquid and soften. Peanut butter is stirred in toward the end, adding a creamy, nutty depth that thickens the porridge. Cinnamon and salt enhance the flavor balance, and sweetener can be adjusted to taste. The texture can be made thicker or thinner by extending cooking time or adding more milk, respectively.
Serving the porridge with banana slices, additional peanut butter, nuts, and seeds adds complexity in texture and fresh or crunchy contrasts to the creamy oats. The recipe is adaptable to individual preferred flavors and dietary needs.
Care should be taken to avoid overcooking, which may cause the porridge to become mushy or stick to the pan. Frequent stirring helps ensure even cooking and prevents burning.
Ingredients

Notes
