This sweet banana almond oatmeal is warm, sweet, and lusciously filling, and it leaves me satisfied for hours! The recipe is also incredibly versatile. Switch out any of the ingredients for whatever you fancy. I like it best with some vanilla extract instead of almond extract and topped with crunchy peanut butter and a drizzle of honey! If you want your oatmeal a bit thicker, use a little less milk or cook for a little longer.

- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
