Banana And Cinnamon Oatmeal Recipe

Susan is back with another recipe.  This time it’s for breakfast – Banana and Cinnamon Oatmeal.

My husband cooked us oatmeal (his favorite breakfast…and he cooks it….even better), I added a few ingredients. 

Banana And Cinnamon Oatmeal

You can make oatmeal more healthy, but mine has a little more of the old comfort food flare…as in butter and brown sugar. 

Either way, how about some oats for breakfast? 

We use Bob’s Red Mill rolled oats. CINNAMON AND BANANA OATMEAL:

• 1 cup of oats
• 1 cup of water
• 1 cup of milk
• 1 tbsp butter
• a dash of salt
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• a dash of cinnamon
• 1/2 large banana or 1 small one
• 1/8—1/4 cup of Fat Free Half and Half
• nuts, nutmeg, ginger, cloves (all optional)

Directions:

Cook the oats, water, milk, butter and salt in a deep glass bowl in the the microwave for 5 minutes.  

Stir and cook another 3 minutes.  Make sure the bowl is big enough to allow for the boiling and rising. 

Take out and pour into a bowl.  Pour enough FF Half and Half on it and stir until it is the consistency you like. 

Dash it with cinnamon and add a sliced or chopped banana.

Optional:  add any kind of nuts, nutmeg, ginger, cloves
