Instructions

  1. Melt the coconut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add about 2/3 of the banana slices and cook, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and lightly golden, about 5 minutes.*
  2. Add the oats, cinnamon, a dash of salt, 3 1/2 cups of milk and 2 tablespoons of the peanut butter into the bananas. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Continue to cook until the milk is absorbed and the mixture is creamy, stirring occasionally, 5 to 10 minutes.  Add the remaining 1/2 cup milk if the oats are still not tender.  Remove from the heat.
  3. Divide the oatmeal between 4 bowls. Top each bowl with 1 tablespoon of the coconut, 1/2 tablespoon of the brown sugar, and 1/4 of the remaining banana slices. Drizzle the remaining peanut butter over the top. (I found it was easiest to microwave the peanut butter for a few seconds so that I could drizzle it.) Serve with additional milk, if needed, as well.

Notes

  • *I wanted to avoid any slimy banana pieces, so I used very ripe bananas and let them cook down a little more so that they would blend into the oatmeal better. If you don’t mind the chunks, you can cook them for less time.
