This peanut butter banana oatmeal is creamy, voluminous and will keep you full all morning long! Plus, it only takes about 10 minutes to make and is vegan + gluten-free.
Now that I’ve shared how to make oatmeal, I have to share my favorite oatmeal recipe ever… peanut butter banana oatmeal.
Peanut butter and banana is one of the best combos so it makes sense that this peanut butter banana oatmeal is sooo good. If you’re looking for a healthy breakfast recipe to add to your rotation, this would be a great recipe to try. Each bowl has around 370 calories, 17 grams of fiber (woot!), and 11 grams of protein!
How to Make Voluminous Oats
As a volume eater I love being able to eat a big bowl of something while still feeing good about it. That why I love salads so much!
Oatmeal is a volume eater’s best friend… especially when made with extra water and pumped up with bananas and chia seeds! The trick is using double the amount of liquid typically recommended. Most old fashioned oatmeal packages recommend a 1:2 ratio so 1/2 cup oats and 1 cup of water, but when I make oatmeal I do 1/2 cup oats and 1 1/2 – 2 cups of water (or non-diary milk). The oats take a little bit longer to cook, but they easily soak up all the liquid resulting in a much larger portion.
With this recipe, the banana and chia seeds help too. The banana slices add sweetness, but they also soften and expand making the oats extra voluminous while the chia seeds pack in a ton of nutrition and make the oats fluffy and thick. The key is making sure you stir the oats while cooking so the banana slices break down and the chia seeds get even distributed rather than clumping in one spot. No one likes clumps of chia.
And let’s not forget the peanut butter topping! It may not add a ton of volume but it gives the oats a delicious nutty flavor and a boost of healthy fat and protein, which will help keep you full through a busy morning. My trick for making it super drizzly? Add 1/2 teaspoon melted coconut oil to 2 Tablespoons of peanut butter and stir to combine. The peanut butter will thin and you can get your drizzle on.
Ingredients Needed
- rolled oats – old fashioned rolled oats are best for this recipe. If you have steel cut oats, try my recipe for steel cut oatmeal.
- banana – the banana slices almost melt into the oats giving them a fluffy texture and a subtle sweetness.
- cinnamon – I love adding cinnamon to my oats for a touch of warmth and sweetness without any sugar.
- sea salt – just to bring out all the flavors in the oatmeal.
- water – you can also use non-dairy milk (like almond milk) or a blend of both milk and water.
- peanut butter – I personally love the taste of peanut butter but any nut or seed butter will work.
How to Make Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal
Making this peanut butter banana oatmeal is a breeze.
Start by adding your oats, banana slices, chia seeds, cinnamon and sea salt to a pot. Add water and stir to combine.
Heat over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Be sure to stir the oats several times while cooking to make sure the banana slices melt into the oats and the chia seeds don’t clump. You’ll know the oatmeal is done when all the liquid is absorbed and the oats are thick and fluffy.
Portion oats into two bowls and serve with peanut butter, banana slices, and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Add a splash of non-dairy milk and/or maple syrup on top before serving, if desired.

Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 banana, sliced (save a few for topping)
- 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of sea salt
- 3 cups of water, non-dairy milk or a blend of both
- 2 Tablespoons peanut butter or another type of nut butter
Instructions
- Add oats, banana slices, chia seeds, cinnamon and sea salt to a pot. Add water and stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Be sure to stir the oats several times while cooking to make sure the banana slices melt into the oats and the chia seeds don’t clump. You’ll know the oatmeal is done when all the liquid is absorbed and the oats are thick and fluffy.

Notes
- Meal prep: I like making two servings so I can save one for the next day, but if you don’t like eating leftover oats and are only cooking for yourself, simply cut all ingredients in half. For reheating you can use the stovetop or microwave. Just add the portion you’re going to eat and a splash of water or milk and heat until warm. In the microwave it shouldn’t take more than 30 – 60 secs.
- Overnight oats: Turn this recipe into overnight oats by using all the same ingredients but reducing the non-diary milk to 2 cups instead of 3 cups. Mix everything together, let the mixture sit in the fridge overnight and enjoy the next morning with your favorite toppings.

Agreed on peanut butter and banana, this looks amazing – thanks!
This looks delicious! A filling, healthy breakfast is so important! Yum!
This is sure to hit the spot on a cold winter’s morning. Looks so good….pb and bananas are the best 😀
Do you think it would still work if I just used the banana as a topping? I love peanut butter and banana, but don’t like warm bananas.
Looks delicious and I love the idea of using extra liquid to increase volume.
Yup! It will definitely still work! Enjoy.
I forgot how much I love sliced bananas cooked with my oats- I haven’t made oatmeal like that in forever!! I need to change that ASAP 😉
Love how healthy (and delicious) this is! I’m printing it to make for tomorrow’s breakfast — love that fiber content, too!
Yay!! You’ll have to let me know how it turns out.
Just made this quick recipe this morning for our 9 months old son and myself. Super baby friendly and delicious!! Thanks!
Yay! So glad that both you and the babe enjoyed it!! I just had a bowl this morning too! 🙂
Looks really awesome. Have to try it our when I get home.

Thanks Pilla! You’ll have to let me know what you think of it. 🙂
Hi Brittany,
Just pinned this to my board. Great idea for oats. The peanut butter is the best part. I stumbled upon your site and really love what you are doing. Can’t wait to browse around more. Thank you for bringing conscious eating to so many. Well done!
Happy New Year,
Victoria
YUM! This has all my favorite foods – PB, banana, and oats!
So no peanut butter in the actual oatmeal? Just on top?
That’s correct. Just stir the peanut butter in right before before serving. 🙂
Any alternative suggestions for a non-banana lover? (I know it’s a rarity) This looks amazing but I just can’t do bananas!
Happy New Year! Hope you are well!
hmmm… you could always make it without the banana! If you need a little sweetness you can try adding maple syrup or honey. Another option would be chopped apples. I love apple cinnamon oats!
This is one of the healthiest breakfasts that I had seen in the recent times.
Just finished the 2nd portion this morning — yum! Perfect right before a snowstorm…
A side note: my oats weren’t even close to being done at the 8-10 minute mark. It took twice as long (22min) for it to look like somewhat like your pic. I followed the recipe (no substitutions). I’m just letting others know it might take a tad longer. I loved adding the coconut oil to the peanut butter! I never thought of doing that! I’ve always loved the combo of peanut butter and coconut. Thanks for another yummy (and easy) recipe! 🙂
Yay! So glad you enjoyed the oats, Kristen. Interesting about the cook time. You used old fashioned rolled oats, correct? I’m wondering if your temperature was just a bit lower so it took the oats longer to cook up? I usually do medium-high heat.
This was easy and quick to make with staple ingredients. It made a large portion to serve my family of 4. It tasted delicious! Thank you!
Yay!! So glad you and your family enjoyed the recipe, Jackie!
Could slow-cooking steel-cut oats be used in place of the processed oats, and if so, does it change anything else as far as timing goes?
Yes, you can totally use steel cut oats. You’ll do the same oat to water ratio (1 cup of oats to 3 cups of water). Add everything to your pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20-30 minutes or until the oats are tender. I have a steel cut oat recipe too if you’re interested.
Thank you! Yes, I would LOVE the steel cut recipe!
THANK YOU for the oatmeal:water ratio tip. I’ve made my oats this way for two mornings now, and I don’t think I’ll switch back. I’m a volume eater too (usually my dinner plate is covered in a layer of lightly sauteed kale, and then the main/sides go on top of that…) If you have any other volume tips, I’d love to hear them!
OMG, I made this Friday and ate it for breakfast that day and again Saturday, so, so good, thank you for sharing!
Hooray!! So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Dawn!!
Great oatmeal recipe you have here! Love it! Can’t wait to give this one a try. Its perfect for winter and those chilly mornings.
I’m making this right now! Was trying to think of something to make for breakfast when I stumbled on this recipe on Pinterest. I will be saving it and will be making this for my family soon 🙂
For now I’m going to enjoy this by myself
Yay!!! I hope you loved the oatmeal, Sheena-Rae. 🙂
The best recipe to ever be posted on the internet!
I just made this for the first time! What is the best way to eat it the next morning? Do you heat it up or eat it cold?
This has been my go-to breakfast recipe for a while now. SO GOOD.
Ahh!! This makes me so happy. Glad you love ii, Sophie!
I do not like coconut in any form. Is there something else I can mix with the peanut butter for a drizzle?
Any type of oil should work since it’s only a small amount!
I just mixed a little avocado oil with mine since I need to restock my pantry 🙂 … I also added some ground flax seed instead of chia seeds because I’m out of those too … turned out good 🙂
This is the fluffiest, most amazing bowl of oatmeal I have EVER had!!
I adore oatmeal & can’t believe I have lived 32 years of my life without this, lol. This will be a part of my weekly diet for sure! I thought I would top it off with some milk, but honestly it is creamy & delicious without so much as a drop of milk.
Thank you for the delicious & incredibly healthy recipe. 🙂
Live this recipe and I am not an oatmeal person. I could eat this every morning!
Could quick cooking oats be used?
I’m new to the oatmeal world (well non-instant oatmeal, those are just too small and filled with sugar) and it’s cold now so I can’t wait to make these because it’s my favourite flavour combo.
Yum!! Keeper of a recipe!! Perfect for a cold morning.
So glad you enjoyed it, Kristen.
How long would this stay in the refrigerator for
I’d say 2-3 days!
I tried this recipe the other day and I liked it except, next time I will add the banana after it is cooked, seems like the banana’s lost their flavor in the cooking process.
That makes sense! I like adding the banana into the oats while they cook because the banana gets fluffy and adds a hint of sweetness to the oats but adding sliced bananas after cooking is delicious too!
This is awesome!
Question, if I don’t have chia seeds, the amount of water stays the same?
Thank you!
Hi Sofia! Yes, the amount of water still stays the same without the chia seeds.
I used to get hungry at work at around 9 or 10 and would need a snack. Now that I eat this oatmeal recipe in the morning I’m fulk until lunch! I love adding the banana in from the start. Great recipe.
Thanks Gabby! I’m so happy to hear you like this recipe. It’s a go-to at our house too!
Can you make this as an overnight oat recipe?
Hey Jen! Yes, but I would decrease the amount of liquid to about 2 cups instead of 3 cups. And I’d use milk or non-dairy milk instead of water! Let me know if you try it. 🙂
What do you do to reheat them?
For reheating I use the stovetop or microwave. Just add the portion you’re going to eat and a splash of water or milk and heat until warm. In the microwave it shouldn’t take more than 30 – 60 secs.
Hi Brittany!, this recipe is absolutely amazing!, thank you for sharing this recipe with us!!
Of course! So happy that you enjoyed it. 🙂
This recipe is delicious! I’ve made it many times and served it to guests, and it’s always a huge hit. Thank you!!
Made this with quick cooking steel cut oats this morning. Delicious!!
Just found this randomly on YouTube after searching for a good oatmeal recipe! I tried it using instant oats and no chia seeds since I didn’t have any at the moment but it turned out great! Will try it again with old fashion oats. 🙂
These were SO GOOD! I used an almond/coconut milk blend, natural PB, and no sweetener, and they were delicious. Thanks!
So wait the serving size is for all the ingredients cut in half?
Yes! The recipe makes two servings. 🙂
One word… AMAZING!
This is my go-to oatmeal recipe – I make it all the time! Thanks so much for sharing. So good<3
Yay!! It’s my go-to recipe too. So glad you like it, Mandalee. And thank you so much for coming back to leave a comment and star rating for the recipe. It’s super helpful!
This was honestly the best oatmeal recipe I’ve ever had. It took a lot for me to make it, from past issues, but when I ate it, my tastebuds fell in love! I made half of the servings, just for one person and I used almond milk. This time, I cooked it again but instead with coconut milk and it’s even better! I had my mom try it and she fell in love and wouldn’t stop eating mine!! I’m officially calling it. This is the BEST oatmeal recipe in the world.
I just made this and it was delicious! Thank you for the recipe!
I followed the recipe and have cooked it for 10 minutes and still have tons of liquid…I’ll cook it a little longer and hope it turns out!
Amazing! Great flavor and consistency!
Even my 2 picky eaters loved it, will definitely
be making this a staple in our house!
Thanks!!!
I really enjoyed the idea of this recipe, but the result came out funky. It says 8-10 minutes in the recipe but mine didn’t even start absorbing until the 20-25 minute mark. The end product looked more like glue than it did oatmeal. Any suggestions?
That’s so strange. I think the reason is came out so thick and glue-like is likely because you cooked it too long. Did you use milk or water to cook it? And what temperature were you using?
This happened to me too! I cut the recipe in half and used almond milk. I cooked it on medium heat… didn’t turn out fluffy like your pictures! Still smells delicious!!! Just wondering what I did wrong?
Oh no!! So sorry to hear that. Did you let it sit or did you keep mixing it together? That’s so strange that happened!
Loved this recipe! I’ve been starting a more healthy lifestyle, and I’m also at classes for 5 hours a day – it’s been difficult to find something that’s healthy but will keep me full! This definitely was the answer, and it was delicious!
Is it really 9 cups of water/milk when making the recipe times 3? It’s a lot of liquid for 3 cups of oatmeal. Just want to make sure I’m not doing something wrong.
Yes, 9 cups would be correct!
This is THE BEST oatmeal recipe, I make it all the time! I like having it cold on top of plain or coconut yogurt with additional seeds and maple syrup drizzled on top instead of PB. 🙂
Yay! I’m so excited to hear that you love this oatmeal recipe, Danielle. It’s my favorite oatmeal recipe too! And I love the idea about having it cold with yogurt. Sounds delicious.
Hello Brittany,
I am a bloke, so excuse the basic lack of cooking knowledge….I like the idea of the peanut butter oat chia banana mix but can I add yoghurt instead of milk – I have had to dump my bran stick/oats/yoghurt breezy due to gas issues – seem to be cause by the bran!!
Hey Paul. I don’t think subbing yoghurt for the milk will work for this recipe… it will be too thick, but I have a protein-packed Greek yogurt oatmeal recipe that you might enjoy. Be sure to check that one out!
Absolutely delicious! To save some extra time in the morning I made this into an “overnight oats” where I combined the ingredients in a mason jar (except for the peanut butter) the day before, then heated up in the morning and topped with the peanut butter and a few bananas
Love that idea, Karlee! So glad you enjoyed this recipe and thank you for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. It means the world to me. <3
Just made this but it was very bland. What did I do wrong? I didn’t want to keep adding maple syrup to give it more taste. I used 2 cups of water and one of almond milk.
Thank you for this, didn’t quite work first time so left the salt out and added blueberries instead.
Very filling
Hey Ben! I’m glad this oatmeal turned out for you the second time! Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it.
This breakfast has become my go-to!!! So simple and fast and great for a pre-workout or an on-the-go meal! I mix in some chocolate oat milk or chocolate ripple (I’m vegan) and it’s the best as it gives it a chocolate, banana, pb combo! AHHHHmazing
Yay!! I’m so glad you’re loving this oatmeal, Linda! I so appreciate you coming back to leave a comment and star rating. It means the world to me. <3
I can’t thank you enough for this delicious recipe! I’ve been making it at least once a week and portioning it into 3 meals. I sometimes add hemp seeds and blueberries for some added nutrition and flavor. I like that it isn’t so sweet and somewhat low in calories. I’m an oatmeal lover like you and I can’t wait to try some of your other oatmeal recipes. Thank you again and hope you and your family are well during this crazy time in our lives!
Ahh yay!! I’m so glad you’ve been enjoying this recipe, Allison. Thanks for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. I so appreciate it! And I hope you’re doing well and staying safe as well. <3
Made this for breakfast today and it was so quick and easy. Makes the perfect fluffy, satisfying oats and a lot of them. A good sized portion for me was 1/4-1/3 of the pot so I should have leftovers for a few days. Will be making again!
I’d seen this on your IG so many times but finally tried it today and let me tell you – best oatmeal I’ve ever had! I’m even considering getting up earlier on weekdays just to make it before work, haha.
Ahh that makes me so happy to hear, Sintija!! I’m so glad you finally got a chance to try this recipe and loved it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and star rating, I so appreciate it. 🙂
I seriously make this at least once a week and it is SO good. The perfect combo of oats, peanut butter, and banana!
Ahh yay!! So glad you’re enjoying this oatmeal recipe, Anna. It’s my all-time fave!! Thanks for coming back to leave a comment and star rating. It means the world to me. <3
I actually made this recipe a while ago, but I just wanted to come back and say how good it is 🙂 So filling, easy to make and delicious!! It was the first stovetop oatmeal recipe I tried and it automatically got me hooked to making them that way. Thanks for sharing <3
Ahh yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed this oatmeal recipe. Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. It means the world to me. <3
This is a new favorite in my breakfast rotation. I typically make a double batch, put in two Mason jars, then warm in the morning with peanut butter and honey. I love how filling this oatmeal is! Some breakfasts leave you hungry within an hour, but this isn’t one of them.
Ahh yay!! That makes me so happy to hear, Susan. I’m so glad you’re loving this oatmeal recipe. It’s my all-time fave. 🙂 Thanks for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
I really like the recipe! The fluffy oatmeal, and my favorite peanut butter with banana!
Love this recipe! We do oatmeal every morning in our house and this recipe is always in the rotation once per week. I love the idea of cooking the banana into the oatmeal so much that I’ve actually stolen it to use on other oatmeal recipes with fruits and nuts on top as well! It adds a slight sweetness without needing to use any added sugar.
So glad you’ve been loving this recipe, Arie! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment + star rating. I really appreciate it. <3
so quick, easy, & cheap!!! i loved this! it was so filling and tasted amazing with just the right amount of sweetness
These oats are AMAZING! I love how fluffy and sweet they are without any added sweetener. The PB and banana is beyond delicious.
Thank you for this amazing recipe! Will definitely be making this all the time now for breakfast or dessert!
Ahh yay!! That makes me so happy to hear, Kass. I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe. Thanks for trying it and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it. 🙂
Is it kept in an airtight container?
Hey Morgan – I normally make the oatmeal the morning I’m going to eat it, but you can certainly store this in an airtight container in the fridge if you are making this in advance.
It was SO BAD. Do
Not try this recipe. It was watery, and tasted so disgusting. Ruined my breakfast
Hey Emily – I’m so sorry to hear you didn’t like this. The oats definitely shouldn’t be watery. Did you change anything about the recipe?
Mine was also watery. The liquid might be too much for the recipe. 3 cups of liquid for one cup of oatmeal doesn’t match up.
Hey Kristen – Sorry to hear that. Did you add the bananas and chia seeds to this oatmeal when cooking and how long did you let the oats cook for? I’ve never had an issue with the oats turning out too liquidy!
oooohhhhhh! this was so good & easy! my kiddos were SO impressed…not really a cooking mom, but trying… so THANKS! YUMMMMMY
Ahh yay!! So glad this oatmeal turned out for you, DeAnna. Thanks for trying my recipe and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I so appreciate it. 🙂
Thank you for the recipe, I like to eat high volume foods with a low caloric impact. I did notice the calorie are off a bit and wondering what brands you are using? The oats, banana, and peanut butter alone are 580 calories.
Hey Brooke. This recipe serves 2. I think that’s why your stats are different.
It tasted really good considering there was no sugar
I made this yesterday and put one serving in the fridge. It was delicious fresh but I think it was even better the day after. Thank you for this!!
Ahh yay! So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Libby. 🙂
This is delicious😊
very helpful and tasty !!!
Made this and it came out great! Will definitely make again.
So glad you enjoyed this oatmeal, Milly! Thanks for trying my recipe and for coming back to leave a comment + star rating. I appreciate it!
I made this using oat bran actually – because that, along with a bunch of chia seeds (which I bought and didn’t end up being a fan of in smoothies!) was what I was trying to use up. It turned out delicious, I used a bit less plant milk though. I also added some honey because I have a sweet tooth.
I’m not usually a breakfast person but this might convert me.
Oh yay!! So glad this was a hit for you, Hannah. Good to know that oat bran worked!
Yum! I eat oatmeal most mornings and this was a nice way to liven it up a bit. I added a touch of vanilla while the oatmeal was cooking and topped it with blackberries and pecans.Your tip on adding the melted coconut oil to the peanut for easy drizzling was clutch! Big fan and my sweet tooth thanks you 😄
So glad you loved this oatmeal, Nicole! It’s my absolute fave. 🙂 Thanks for coming back to leave a review, I really appreciate it.
tried this for first time today and thank you so much (I have suffered for 3 months on the blandest of diets due to 3 miss diagnoses in hospitals 4 antibiotics and now at the gastro doc to try fix my reflu due to so much medication) I had to change peanut butter to almond butter and no cinnamon but sooooo creamy good and filling gave me JOY I will be eating the 2nd portion tomorrow am 🙂 and preparing this ahead for after surf sessions YUM
This makes me so happy to hear, Ana. I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much. Thank you for coming back to leave a comment and star rating too. I so appreciate it.
I’m SOOO bored with my standard healthy breakfast options. This was really delicious and filling. Will def check out some more EBF recipes!
Yay!! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe, Liz. Thanks for trying it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Too much water, it doesn’t cook down.
Hi Nelody. I double up the water to make it extra creamy. I’ve made this recipe hundreds of times so I know for sure that it will cook down if you follow the recipe.
Soso yummy and love that i found a new way to consume those nasty little seeds cant stand they jelly feeling they get when i put them in water.
haha. Chia seeds definitely have a funny texture, but they work great in oats because you don’t notice it. You might also like these oatmeal chia cookies!
Not as sweet as I’d hoped with the banana. Still added some brown sugar. It was a tough texture for my 2 1/2 year old, she spat it out :(, too slimy for her. I liked it and the healthiness though.
This recipe was delicious and SO filling. I made 1.5x the recipe for me and my 2 kids and we had PLENTY leftover for tomorrow. Loved it, it’s our new favorite!
Woo!! So glad this recipe was a hit. Thanks for coming back to leave a review, Caitlin. I so appreciate it. 🙂
This was super delicious! I did make a few subs…used half skim milk and half water, honey in place of the syrup, then skipped the pb but added a sprinkle of chopped pecans and a handful of blueberries. This will be my basic oatmeal from now on! Going to try a carrot cake version of it next. Thank you sooo much!
So glad you loved this oatmeal, Jenn. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
Always looking for new breakfast options for my toddler (and myself!) This one combines all his favourite things and definitely will become one of our regulars 🙂 thanks so much!
(Added a bit of honey for some extra sweetness too 😉
Yay!! So glad this recipe was a hit. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
This an awesome recipe! I added some turmeric to it and made it a “golden milk” taste! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
Ohh love that idea!! So glad this oatmeal was a hit. Thanks for coming back to leave a review, Danielle. I so appreciate it!
Delicious! Followed recipe exactly. It was creamy and yummy! My son enjoyed it as well.
So glad you enjoyed this recipe! Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
This is so good! It’s been my go-to breakfast for the last week.
Yay!! So glad you’ve been loving this recipe, Adele. Thanks for the review. I appreciate it!
My go to breakfast! I’d recommend turning off the heat when the oats are emerging from the liquid, stiring it a bit and leaving for 3-5 minutes. The texture gets exstra thick and it is soo tasty.
So glad you love this recipe, Mel! Thanks for the review, I so appreciate it!
I eat this 3 to 4 times a week now. Love it! Because I only make one portion, I end up using a whole banana, whoops 😅 Using the coconut oil with the peanut butter gives it a slightly more decadent flavor, and I’m full until 3 pm! Thanks for this 💕
Best oatmeal ever!!! It was so good that I cant wait to have the second portion i saved for the next day. So delicious!! I will definitely be making this every week now. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Woo!! So glad you love this oatmeal, Merce. Thanks for the review. I so appreciate it!
I made this oatmeal today for breakfast and it was delicious. I love that no sugar is added but it is still sweet and so tasty. I’m definitely going to add this to my rotation.
Yay!! So pumped to hear this oatmeal was a success! Thanks so much for the review, Maren. I really appreciate it!
Hi, what brand of peanuts butter is safe? I believe a lot of them contain soy?
I usually just look for a natural nut butter with one or two ingredients (peanuts + salt)! Some of my faves are the Whole Foods brand and Wild Friends (use code ebf10 for 10% off your order)!
It came out great and it was delicious. The only thing It took more than 10 minutes to get it thick.
Banana, pb, oatmeal…. What could be better?!?! GREAT morning breakfast!
Happy to hear you enjoyed this oatmeal, Gretchen. Thanks for the review!
This is my favorite recipe for stovetop oats. I make it once or twice a week for an easy, quick, filling and delicious breakfast.
Woo!! Love to hear this, Maren. Thanks for the review!
Amazing recipe! Healthy, easy to make, and tastes delicious. I made half the recipe but used extra cinnamon and it was great!
Woo! So glad you enjoyed this recipe, Julie! Extra cinnamon sounds delicious. Thanks for coming back to leave a review and star rating! I really appreciate it.
Made without banana and it was excellent! Thank you for this recipe!
Woo! So glad this recipe worked out for you, Jeanelle! Thanks for coming back to leave a review, I really appreciate it.
Made this as a bedtime snack and I was not disappointed at all! Better still is there’s still leftovers for tomorrow’s breakfast! Definitely will be doing this again! Thank you for this recipe!
Woo! I’m so glad to hear that, Michael! Thanks for making this recipe and coming back to leave a review and star rating, I really appreciate it!
Love love love!! So delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Yay! I’m so glad you loved this recipe, Lisa! Thanks for making it and coming back to leave a review, it means the world to me.
I’ve made this recipe a ton of times and love it. It’s delicious and filling and uses my favorite combo — peanut butter, banana, and chia seeds! When I make it, I like to use two cups canned coconut milk, one cup water, and it makes it really creamy and indulgent. I find that making the recipe as it is gives me about three meals. Reheats well.
Yum! Creamy and indulgent sounds delicious! Thanks for letting me know what changes you made and for coming back to leave a review, I really appreciate it!
Revision to my last comment — I use ONE cup of coconut milk, two cups water. Two cups coconut milk is a little too creamy, lol!
I used chocolate peanut butter and milk. Turned out super creamy and delicious. It’s a treat.🤩
Thanks for sharing this recipe 😋
So glad you enjoyed this baked oatmeal recipe, Isha. Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
I LOVE this recipe!!! I top it with whatever fresh fruit (apples have been awesome this fall) and it has been my go-to for the past 2 weeks (with no end in sight). Thank you!
Ah yay! I am glad to hear that you are loving this recipe and that it is a remake, Kimmy. Thank you so much for sharing your review + star rating, it really means a lot to me.
Can I make this recipe without the chia seeds? I love love love banana and almond butter but I don’t like chia seeds.
Sure! This recipe should work without the chia seeds. Enjoy!
I made this for breakfast this morning, it was yummy! I made the 2 servings, but it might be more like 4 for me. I used steel cut oats, takes a little longer than the recipe calls for. But very delicious, will be making this more often
Yay! I am excited to hear that you are enjoying this recipe, Tracy. Thank you so much for your review & star rating, I appreciate it!
How do you get your peanut butter runny like that??!
I always use natural peanut butter. The ingredients are just peanuts and sometimes sea salt!
I have made this more times than I can count! So delicious, the perfect texture, and a nice big bowl for breakfast (or lunch!) that keeps me satisfied until my next meal! I add a teaspoon of vanilla too. 👌 Thank you for the recipe!
YUM! This is so great, Veronica. I am SO glad you are loving this oatmeal and it is a hit. Thank you so much for sharing your review + star rating, I truly appreciate it!
