Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 small very ripe bananas
- ⅔ cup gluten-free rolled oats
- ¼ cup BareOrganics Golden Milled Flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon BareOrganics Turmeric Root Powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt
- 1 cup milk of choice
- ¼ cup yogurt of choice
Toppings (optional)
- Toppings of choice (such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or honey)
Instructions
- Mash the bananas: In a mixing bowl, thoroughly mash the ripe bananas until smooth to create a naturally sweet base for the oats.
- Add dry ingredients: Stir in the gluten-free rolled oats, golden milled flaxseed, turmeric powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the spices and seeds.
- Combine wet ingredients: Pour in the milk of your choice and the yogurt. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until fully combined into a creamy consistency.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 3 to 4 hours or ideally overnight. This allows the oats and flaxseed to soak and absorb the liquids, softening the mixture.
- Serve: Before serving, stir the oats well. Divide the mixture into two bowls or jars. Add your preferred toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, or seeds, and enjoy a nutritious start to your day.
