What to eat today? A question we ask ourselves almost every day.
I always look for the highly nutritious and a quick recipe in the morning. I would prefer to batch cook and store it in the fridge. I do not like to spend long hours in the kitchen. Today, I’ve got a healthy breakfast recipe, which I prepare for my family once a week and I store and then reuse.
Let’s dive into the recipe – a wholesome, hot, and homemade breakfast of oatmeal combo with Banana, Peanut butter. Banana will add flavor and sweetness. Healthy fat protein booster, Peanut butter will give a nutty flavor and along with banana, the oatmeal becomes voluminous. I have added Raisins, pistachio, grounded Flaxseeds, Sesame, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds and fresh fruits (Banana and watermelon) to the meal.
What are the health benefits?
- The meal is fiber-rich, gluten-free
- Rich in protein, vitamins, and many other minerals(Calcium, Iron etc)
- In addition to all the above, the meal is rich in omega-3 fatty acids
So, this recipe is perfect for those in weight loss diet, who have high blood pressure levels(Omega-3 fatty acid-1 spoon of ground flax seed per day helps for those who have high BP level), also good for a healthy heart, and adding cinnamon helps those, who are diabetic. B-vitamins are good for blood production and healthy nerve system. And many more…
In one word, it is a ‘nutrient dense’ tasty meal.
Difficulty Level | Easy |
Prep time | 2-3 minutes |
Cooking Time | 10 minutes |
Refrigerator life | 1 Week |
Reheating method | Reheat |
Ingredients | Measurement |
Plant-based milk | 21/2 Cups |
Rolled Oats | 1 Cup |
Fresh/Frozen Banana slices | 1/2 Cup |
Peanut butter | 2 Tablespoons |
Chia Seed and cinnamon | 1 Teaspoon each |
Grounded Flaxseed | 2 Teaspoons |
Sunflower seed & Pumpkinseeds | 2 Teaspoons each |
Raisins | 1/4 Cup |
Directions:
- Add rolled Oats, Milk, Banana slices, chia seeds to a pot and stir well and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the oats cook
- Continue to stir the oatmeal several times to make sure Banana slices break down and mix well with the oats
- Add peanut butter, stir well and turn off the heat
- Add all other ingredients and mix well
- Serve with fresh fruits and freeze the remaining oatmeal in a glass container for reuse
Note:
- I do not store with fruits, and when I use the frozen oatmeal, I reheat with extra milk and then mix the fresh fruit and grounded flaxseed
- I have added watermelon slices, however, you may substitute watermelon with any fruit of your choice (Apples, pear, Berries, persimmon)
- Adding Tahini will enhance the taste
- If you are using steel cut oats, keep them soaked overnight and cook
- You may add honey if the banana is not sweet
