A quick and easy 5-minute breakfast recipe combining rolled oats, peanut butter, and ripe banana for a creamy, nourishing start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats (45g)
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (120ml)
  • 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (32g)
  • 1 medium ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (7g, optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (12g, optional)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (2.5ml, optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a jar or bowl with a fork until smooth with a few small lumps remaining (about 1 to 2 minutes).
  2. Stir in peanut butter and honey or maple syrup if using. Add vanilla extract if desired and mix until fully combined.
  3. Add rolled oats, chia seeds (if using), and a pinch of salt. Stir well to coat oats with the banana-peanut butter mixture.
  4. Pour in almond milk and stir thoroughly to combine. The mixture will be wet but thick.
  5. Seal the jar or bowl with a lid and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours to allow oats and chia seeds to soak and thicken.
  6. In the morning, stir the oats well. Add a splash of milk if too thick. Optionally top with sliced banana, a drizzle of peanut butter, or chopped nuts.

Notes

Use rolled oats for best texture; chia seeds are optional but help thicken and add nutrition. If short on time, soak for at least 30 minutes but overnight is ideal. Adjust sweetness after soaking if needed. Store in fridge up to 3 days. Warm gently if preferred.
