Ingredients

Servings:

1 cup rolled oats
2 cup milk
1 piece ripe banana
0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch grated nutmeg
1 pinch sea salt
1 tablespoon honey

Step-by-Step Preparation

Speed:1x

Place a wide, non-stick saucepot on the stove over medium heat and warm it. Add 1 cup of oats to the warmed dry pot. Toast the oats dry by stirring constantly for approximately 2-3 minutes until they release a slight nutty aroma and turn golden yellow.

Slowly add 2 cups of milk to the toasted oats while stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let it cook for approximately 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats absorb the milk and soften.

While the oats are cooking, take half of 1 ripe banana and mash it into a smooth puree using a fork in a plate. Slice the other half of the banana into thin slices to use during the serving stage.

When the oatmeal begins to thicken slightly and reach a pudding-like consistency, add the prepared banana puree and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the pot. Continue cooking over low heat for another 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly so all ingredients are well combined.

Just before removing the pot from the stove, add 1 pinch of finely grated nutmeg and 1 pinch of sea salt to increase the depth of flavor, stir one last time, and remove from the heat.

Transfer the prepared hot and thick oatmeal into a wide serving bowl. Place the reserved banana slices on top and serve hot by drizzling 1 tablespoon of strained honey over it.

Chef's Tips

Lightly toasting the oats in a dry pot before cooking releases their natural oils, giving your porridge a deep and nutty aroma.
The consistency of the porridge will thicken as it cools; if you get a very firm consistency, you can loosen it by adding a very small amount of hot milk or water before taking it off the heat.

Alternative & Optional Ingredients

You can use plant-based milk alternatives such as almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk instead of cow's milk.
You can prefer grated apple according to the season or fresh blueberries instead of banana.

Gourmet Recommendations

Just before serving, you can achieve a crunchy texture by sprinkling lightly toasted slivered almonds, chopped walnuts, or raw cocoa nibs on top.
