Ingredients

Oatmeal Base

  • 1
    0.5 cup rolled oats
  • 2
    1 cup water
  • 3
    0.5 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 4
    0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 5
    0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 6
    0.125 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 7
    0.125 teaspoon salt

Caramelized Bananas

  • 1
    1 each ripe banana
  • 2
    1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 3
    1 teaspoon maple syrup

Honey Roasted Almonds

  • 1
    0.25 cup almonds
  • 2
    0.5 tablespoon honey

Garnish

  • 1
    0.5 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)

Directions

1

Combine Oatmeal Ingredients

In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats, water, milk, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to ensure there are no lumps.

2

Simmer Oatmeal

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. A simmer means small bubbles will gently break the surface of the liquid.

3

Cook Oatmeal

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally.

4

Slice Bananas

While the oatmeal is cooking, prepare the bananas. Slice the banana into 1/2-inch thick rounds.

5

Heat Coconut Oil

Heat coconut oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering and heated, carefully place the banana slices in the pan in a single layer. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan, you might need to do this in batches.

6

Caramelize Bananas

Cook the banana slices for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and caramelized. You will start to smell the sweet aroma of the bananas and see them turn slightly translucent and brown at the edges. Drizzle maple syrup over the banana slices during the last minute of cooking.

7

Prepare Honey Roasted Almonds

In a separate small pan or microwave-safe dish, combine almonds and honey. If using a pan, heat over low heat, stirring continuously until the honey is absorbed and the almonds are lightly toasted (about 3-5 minutes). If using a microwave, heat in 20 second intervals, checking and stirring in between, until toasted and coated with honey.

8

Assemble Oatmeal Bowl

Once the oatmeal is cooked, carefully transfer it to a bowl. Top with the caramelized bananas, honey-roasted almonds, and a sprinkle of fresh grated ginger for an extra zing. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm and delicious bowl!

Recipe Tips

  • For a smoother oatmeal, use quick-cooking oats instead of rolled oats.
  • Adjust the amount of turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon to your preference.
  • If you don't have maple syrup, you can use honey or agave nectar for caramelizing the bananas.
  • Store leftover cooked oatmeal in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • If using a metal pan, be careful not to touch it after heating as it will be hot.
  • Always be mindful when cooking with hot oil and keep a safe distance to avoid splatters or burns.
