Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bowl
Filling oatmeal breakfast bowl made with rolled oats, milk of choice, cocoa powder peanut butter, and maple syrup. Easy to make and so tasty.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter
- 1 3/4 cups milk of choice
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large banana sliced to serve with
Instructions
- Place the oats, peanut butter, and cocoa powder in a saucepan. Add the milk, maple syrup and vanilla.
- Place over medium heat and once bubbling, reduce the heat to a low.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until thickened and creamy, about 5 minutes.
- Allow the oatmeal to cool for a bit, then divide among bowls and garnish with sliced banana.
Notes
- You may use quick oats but the consistency and cooking time change.
- Any nut butter will work. Try almond or cashew butter if you do not have peanut butter.
- Honey will work in place of maple syrup. You may also use agave.
- You may totally skip the vanilla extract if you don't have any.
- Any milk works. I used 2% but you can use plant-based milk like almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, or cashew milk.
