Ingredients
- ½ cup steel cut oats
- 2 cups water
- 1 banana sliced, ripe
- 2 Medjool dates chopped
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼-½ teaspoon salt sea salt
- almond butter chopped dates, chia seeds and hemp seeds (for topping)
Instructions
- Place oats and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil, watching carefully so the water doesn’t boil over. Turn down heat quickly and allow the oats to simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cover with a lid and let stand overnight at room temperature.
- The next morning, uncover the saucepan and stir in banana slices, chopped dates, cinnamon and sea salt. Bring oats to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently until the oatmeal is cooked and creamy, about 5-7 minutes. Portion the oatmeal into bowls. Dress with toppings of choice. I used almond butter, chopped dates, chia seeds and hemp seeds.
