Cook the Oats:
In a medium saucepan, bring the water or milk to a boil.
Add the rolled oats and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to low and let the oats simmer for about 5 minutes, or until they reach your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Prepare the Banana:
While the oats are cooking, peel and slice the ripe banana. You can also mash it if you prefer a smoother texture.
Combine and Sweeten:
Once the oats are cooked, stir in the sliced or mashed banana. Add honey or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste.
For added flavor, sprinkle cinnamon on top.
Add Toppings:
Serve your oatmeal in a bowl and top with your favorite fruits, nuts, or seeds. Fresh berries, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of chia seeds make excellent additions.
