Ingredients
- ½ cup old fashioned oats
- ½ banana sliced (optional)*
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of sea salt
- 1 cup water milk or a blend of both
- ¼ cup egg whites*
Instructions
- Add oats, banana slices, cinnamon and sea salt to a pot. Add water/milk and stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Be sure to stir the oats several times while cooking to make sure the banana slices melt into the oats.
- Add egg whites into the oats and stir/whisk constantly. Stirring will keep the egg whites from cooking/scrambling and they will turn into a thick, fluffy consistency instead. This should take 1-2 minutes.
- Once all the liquid is absorbed and the oatmeal is cooked through, place in a bowl and add your favorite toppings. I used peanut butter, granola, coconut and freeze-dried raspberries.

Notes
- natural sweetener
- maple syrup
- You don’t have to cook the oats with a banana, but I like the sweetness it adds. Instead of the banana you could add another natural sweetener to sweeten the oats. Some options: maple syrup, honey, coconut sugar or even stevia.
- You can use 1 or 2 whole eggs instead of the egg whites if you prefer.
