1

    While oats are cooking, mash the banana in a separate bowl or slice it, depending on preference.

    Use a ripe banana for better sweetness.
  4. Mix Peanut Butter

    Once the oats are cooked, remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and mashed banana.

    Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  5. Sweeten to Taste

    If desired, add honey or maple syrup and cinnamon. Stir well.

    Taste before adding more sweetener.
  6. Serve and Garnish
