Banana and Coconut Oatmeal

Recipe #283796 | 7 min | 5 min prep | add private note

Oatmeal--it's so classic, but it's got to be one of the most versatile breakfast foods of all time. Here is one of the many ways that I have enjoyed oatmeal recently--it's so great and a good way to get in some fruit for the day. Serve with a glass of skim milk or a yogurt for a nutritious breakfast!

A nice change for oatmeal. I added a bit of coconut extract, too. Roxygirl

    This was a nice change of pace. I used only half a banana though as i wanted the coconut flavor to be stronger. I sprinkled a few chocolate chips in it for my toddler who then gobbled it all up. (she need a new twist on oatmeal too!) Thanks for posting - will DEFINITELY make it again!

    This was pretty good! I used 1/4 cup rolled oats & 1/3 cup milk-my usual way to make oatmeal! I still used the 1/4 tsp extract & 1 tsp coconut. To me, it needed 1/8 tsp cinnamon-for color & that great taste! I used 1 Splenda pkt, no nuts & made this in the microwave. I love banana oatmeal & this was a great new twist. Thank u for sharing.
