Ingredients
Oatmeal
- ½ Cup instant oats I used Quaker oats
- 1 Cup whole milk or reduced fat, or dairy-free
- 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 Pinch ground cinnamon
- 11 cherries fresh and pitted or freeze dried
- ½ banana sliced
- 3 Tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 Tablespoon cocoa nibs
- 1 Tablespoon pumpkin seeds
- 1 Teaspoon chia seeds
- ½ Teaspoon hemp seeds
Instructions
- Combine milk, chia seeds, cinnamon and instant oats in a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave for 1 ½ to 2 minutes until hot, stirring every 30 seconds.
- Add toppings in desired quantities on top of the cooked oatmeal. You can arrange them neatly or just throw them on.
Notes
Use ripe banana: It blends in easily and adds natural sweetness.
Don’t overcook the oats: Keep them soft and creamy, not dry.
Mix before eating: Stir everything together for the best texture and flavor.
Make ahead: Prep the oat base the night before and just reheat in the morning.
