Creamy Oatmeal

This is not a new recipe, but it was new to me. And boy am I ever glad I tried it!! This is hands down the best oatmeal I have ever tried. And frankly, it is by far the creamiest bowl of oats to date.

Yummy, Creamy Oatmeal

Ingredients
1/2 c. oats (not quick cooking)
1 c. skim milk (or a combination of 1/2 c. water + 1/2 c. skim milk)
1 very ripe banana
1-2 T. peanut butter
Put oats, milk and banana into a pot on medium heat. Mash the banana with the back of a spoon while stirring the oats and milk. Cook to desired creaminess, when most of the liquid is absorbed {mine takes ~5 minutes}.Pour into a bowl. Top with 1-2 T. peanut butter. Enjoy!!!

{The heat of the oatmeal allows the PB to melt across the top of the bowl of oats. Seriously. So good. If you look closely, you can see the banana chunks in the bowl above. If you like banana bread, I think you would like this!}
