I LOVED this oatmeal! I skipped the coconut to lower the fat and used the brown sugar instead. I used vanilla rice milk instead of regular milk. It came together quick and tasted great. Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this! I always have a lot of bananas around (they are my favorite fruit) & so finding new ways to have it in my oatmeal is always welcome! I made one serving & used finely chopped almonds. I also used reduced fat coconut (sold at our co-op!) & added a little cinnamon & Splenda brown sugar. I actually added some coconut into the oatmeal on low with the nuts & then topped it with a little more coconut. I drizzled the top with a little honey but next time will try sugar free maple syrup. Tasty, nutty & healthy!! Thanks so much for sharing; will have this again.

I divided the recipe and this made a wonderful breakfast for DH and I. I used vanilla soy milk and pecans instead of walnuts. Also, I topped it off with some unsweetened coconut and since the coconut was unsweetened, some brown sugar. I will have this again as I am always looking for ways to prepare oatmeal.

Wow, this was probably the best oatmeal porridge I have had in a long time. I used the coconut AND the brown sugar, and my whole family gave it a huge thumbs up! Great blend of flavours that made this porridge memorable. Thanks for posting Sharon!
