It is so tasty! I usually don't eat anything containing banana because I only like it ripe and fresh. I enjoyed it, unexpectedly! 😋

What happened to your chocolate chip oatmeal bake? That was the best recipe and I cant find it anymore.

I was really excited to try this oatmeal, but unfortunately I did not like it. The first few bites were okay, and then I had to force myself to eat the rest. The only flavors I could taste were a very faint banana and also the almond milk. The texture was very creamy, which was nice. But honestly the flavor was awful.

I love this !!! I was looking for a quick yummy oatmeal to help me in my relactation journey (my son is 3m old 🥰) and this is exactly what I needed!! I didn’t have cinnamon, only pumpkin pie spice so I used that instead and it’s so good! I also added chia seeds and ground flax seeds but that’s just for added lactation benefits. Highly recommend this!

This recipe is fantastic! It's both tasty and nutritious, and simple to make. I think it could become a regular breakfast option. For the best results, I use to have Oat Groat's breakfast which is a quick easy, and healthy way to begin the day with the goodness of Porridge. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

easy and good; i almost always use cinnamon and banana or chopped apples to make it sweet enough without having to add brown sugar; can do this with oat bran instead of oatmeal; cooks faster like 2 min and has fiber and nutrients with less calores and carbs. a win win.

Very detailed recipes and I just started to eat oats almost 6 months ago. I make oats paratha for breakfast by adding vegetables in the dough, which is very tasty and healthy as well. Thanks for so many recipes.
