Instructions
Combine Ingredients
In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water or milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir to mix.
For a creamier texture, use milk instead of water. You can use any type of milk, including dairy-free alternatives.
Cook the Oatmeal
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oatmeal has thickened to your desired consistency.
Stirring prevents the oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pan and ensures it cooks evenly.
Prepare Toppings
While the oatmeal is simmering, peel and slice the banana.
Serve and Garnish
Divide the cooked oatmeal between two bowls. Top with the sliced banana and drizzle with honey. Serve warm.
For extra flavor and crunch, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon, a handful of nuts, or some chia seeds.
